Bang Chamber 8

Franks played in a Depeche Mode cover band called Bang Chamber 8 with Mike Bowe (later known as Daddy Long Legs). The lineup was Franks and Bowe on synths, Kevin Hennessey on lead vocals and Justin Ianelli on guitar and additional synths. In 1990, Bang Chamber 8 released a cassette of four original songs: "Wouldn't It Be Nice", "Birthday Boy", "Ice Cubes" and "War Chimes". These songs had nothing in common, lyrically or musically, with the Bloodhound Gang.

Bang Chamber 8 split in 1991. In 1992, Pop and Daddy started a hip hop group called the Bloodhound Gang which later became more of an alternative rock band, also adopting their respective stage names. Daddy Long Legs left the Bloodhound Gang to start Wolfpac in 1997.
