Surf-revival guitarist Mark Brodie -- previously of Mark Brodie & the Beaver Patrol -- formed the Metalunas upon his return to Vancouver from Japan, where he had lived from 1996-97 fronting another surf combo called the Saboteurs. Featuring a rhythm section of Mike Cinnamon (bass) and Rod Moore (drums), the Metalunas made their recording debut in 1999 with X-Minus-One. (via Steve Huey, All Music Guide)
