Biography

Griffin originally played bass for metal band AGaugeFor. AGaugeFor were formed in 1998 featuring Nathan Williams (vocals/guitar), Tim Manton (drums) and Griffin (bass). In March 2000 their song, "Trawl It", was added to the Triple J playlist and in April 2000, Richard Kingsmill invited the band to perform a live set for the Australian Music Show. The band supported Incubus, Sprung Monkey (USA), Down By Law (USA), Suicidal Tendencies (USA), 28 Days, Pacifier, Frenzal Rhomb, Bodyjar, Superheist and Sunk Loto. The band released two EPs, Reproach (1999) and AGauge (December 2001).
