Imminent Attack was formed in September 1981 with members from Mt. Horeb, and Madison, WI. The band first consisted of Kevin Gayton(vocals), David Gayton(guitar), B-rad Skaife(drums), and Mike Hunsberger(on bass), but many changes were made to the line-up over the years. The first change came when Mike realized not only he sucked at bass but couldn't play in front of more than about 3 people. This is when Jim Kading started playing bass in the band. Mike later played "second" guitar in the band. Late in the 80's Brad left and Frank Attaway sat behind the drum kit. IA turned out to be a pretty important local mid-west punk/metal band for most of the decade. The band started out playing originals as well as classic covers from Eddie Cochren, Black Sabbath, Chuck Berry, and the Ramones to name a few. We had quite a following and played with many bands including: The Dead Kennedy's, Black Flag, Motorhead, Husker Du, Circle Jerks, and more... In that time a few tapes and an album were released. Most of the recordings were done by the guy's over at Smart Studios. Butch Vig and Steve Marker of Garbage if you didn't know. (boy, have they come a long way)
