Phunkie Phlowas was born amidst the desolate landscape of the midwest during the summer of '95. Heavy metal was at the height of a rebirth due to bands like Korn, Sepultura and the Limpity Limp having some much needed success. Little did they know a legend was about to be born. A man known by no other name than Clark approached metal frontman Isaac Khan while he was playing air guitar onstage at a local park. “Do you want to get funky?” Clark said. “Do you want to rhyme with me?” The Phlowas were born. Clark soon left the Phlowas to replace Kip as the new frontman for Winger. Two sprouted in his place... Mr. Ben Begonia and Mr. Eric "I can't think of a flower that starts with E" Heartley. The Phlowas relocated to New York, met David Daffodil who collaborated on many of the songs, re-relocated to Missouri, and then Tempe, AZ. They recorded an album, recorded a second album with the same title, toured the world, and went on vacation for 5 years.

Five years later the Phlowas are back with a new line up, new album, and a new outlook on life. Reade Weed brings the block rockin beats. Craig Catchfly dazzles with guitar that will make you shit. As a crowd co-op the Phlowa Patch dish a dose of dance-centric domination led by Nav "the deadly" Nightshade. After all they have been through the Phlowas have not lost their distinct shartcore sound. A blend of funk, thrash, retro-pop, surf, punk that is sure to make your grandma break a hip. ENJOY!

When asked about the events that led to a
5 year hiatus Isaac Iris explained, " After
the huge success of G-Spot and G-Spot in
the late 90's we could not handle the
spotlight. Rehab, jail, fecalphillia,
cripplefights, getting booed off stage at the
Bottlekneck in Lawrence Kansas after
showing up tricked out on ludes, finding
Jesus, finding Satan, eating mushrooms (not
the magic ones, just really good
mushrooms!), graduate school... we just
needed a break."
