Ramones bassist Christopher Jay Ward, aka CJ Ramone, returns with his band Bad Chopper. Bad Chopper was formed by CJ, Mark & John Chadwick in Long Island, NY in June 2000. Originally called Warm Jets, they recorded and released a single (''She Says''). Soon after, they added a second guitar to the band and played in the New York area in the year 2000/2001. In mid-2001 they changed their name to Bad Chopper (to avoid confusion with a UK band that had the first name they had originally intended), toured Japan and then concentrated on recording this self-titled album of songs with punk roots and the power characteristic of this style.
