Encyclopedia
Coal Chamber is an American
alternative metal
band formed in Los Angeles, California
in 1993. Prior to Coal Chamber, Dez Fafara
and Meegs Rascón
formed the band She's In Pain in 1992. The two decided to create Coal Chamber. They disbanded in 2003 after ten years together, but announced a reunion in September 2011. Their first drummer John Thor was eventually replaced by Mike Cox
(who beat out his older brother for the spot). After bassist Rayna Foss
joined, the Coal Chamber lineup was complete.
In 1997 their debut self-titled album Coal Chamber
was released. They toured very heavily supporting this album. The album spawned one single and video, "Loco". The video was also added as an extra after the ending credits of Dee Snider's film, Strangeland
. The band also did an exclusive song for the soundtrack, titled "Not Living."

band, having an image that had more in common with the goth subculture
than hip hop culture.
In late 1994, Dino Cazares
of Fear Factory
championed a demo tape by Coal Chamber, causing a huge local stir with gigs at The Roxy Theatre
and Whisky A Go Go
, eventually leading Coal Chamber to an offer to sign with Roadrunner Records
.
Fafara dropped out of the band quite suddenly due to disagreements with his wife about the band. In the spring of 1995, Dez reunited with Coal Chamber, which ended his marriage but revitalized the band. With a renewed sense of energy, Coal Chamber was able to regain their deal with Roadrunner
by the end of 1995.
, acquired Mike "Bug" Cox, and recorded their first album. The self-titled debut was released on February 11, 1997. They got Nathan "Karma" Cox to direct their first video, Loco.
In 1997, Coal Chamber toured Europe with Machine Head, Napalm Death, Slipknot, and Skinlab, including a show at the legendary Dynamo Festival in the Netherlands.
was released in late 1999 and took a step away from the nu metal
image engendered in their prior release having instead a more Gothic metal
inspired feel. With the bit of commercial success Coal Chamber received after Chamber Music, the band toured on headlining and festival tours. The band managed to catch the attention of Ozzy Osbourne's
wife Sharon Osbourne
who became their manager. Coal Chamber later parted ways with Sharon over personal and creative differences, a theme which continued within the band causing them to take a break from touring and resulting in their non-participation in the Tattoo the Earth
tour in 2000.
In May 2002, it was announced that Coal Chamber had broken up after an on-stage altercation between Dez and Meegs during a show in Lubbock, Texas. They had been fighting verbally before the show and continued to fight on-stage with Meegs hitting Dez in the head with the headstock of his guitar. Dez announced "This is the last Coal Chamber show ever!" and stormed offstage. The band attempted to continue the show with Meegs singing vocals but soon stopped the show altogether. Mikey demolished his drumkit before storming offstage. The band managed to patch things up long enough for an appearance on Last Call with Carson Daly
and a summer tour with American Head Charge
, Lollipop Lust Kill
, and Medication. These would be the last shows the band would ever play.
In October 2002, Mikey "Bug" Cox was fired after several personal disputes with both Fafara and guitarist Meegs Rascón. The official release on the Coal Chamber website stated that the band was looking for a new drummer, although all band activities had come to a standstill.
Late summer 2003 saw the release of a compilation album titled Giving the Devil His Due
which included several demo tracks submitted by the band prior to their signing with Roadrunner Records
in 1997 along with several alternate studio recordings and remixes of various tracks from their previous releases. Coal Chamber officially called it a day in 2003 shortly after lead vocalist Dez Fafara continued with his new band DevilDriver
(formerly known as Deathride).
. In June 2005, Dez Fafara stated that Coal Chamber's hiatus was permanent and would not be reforming at any time in the future. He has also described a reformation as "like repeating the 4th grade again."
Fafara continued as vocalist of metal band DevilDriver
, recording five albums: DevilDriver
, The Fury of Our Maker's Hand
, The Last Kind Words
, Pray for Villains
and Beast
. He is the only member of Coal Chamber to release an album after the disbandment. Bassist Nadja Puelen created the t-shirt company CruelTees, sold online and through stores such as Hot Topic. After taking two years off to recover from a car accident, drummer Mikey "Bug" Cox joined forces with long time friend, producer of Coal Chamber's self titled début, and Orgy
member Jay Gordon to form Machine Gun Orchestra. Guitarist Meegs Rascón went on to form rock band Glass Piñata, previously known as “Piñata”. The group released a few demos on their website, and faced several line-up changes before eventually disbanding. Following Glass Piñata, Meegs joined Orange County rock/electro band NEO GEO mid-2009, although he later left the band in 2010.
Dez and Meegs settled their differences on October 24, 2008, with Meegs joining DevilDriver
on stage at the Glasshouse in Pomona, California
to play "Loco." Dez said that they had settled their disputes.
In September 2009, it was announced that Peulen and Cox had joined forces to form a currently unnamed band. They were seeking a vocalist and guitarist to complete the lineup.
In September 2010, Rascón and Cox joined together in a post-punk band called "We Are the Riot".
