Louiche Mayorga was one of the first bassists for Suicidal Tendencies, playing with the band from 1982 to 1987. He played on the albums Suicidal Tendencies and Join the Army, but was fired in 1987 when Mike Muir told him he "wasn't good enough", in a move to switch Suicidal's musical style from punk to metal (he was replaced by ex-No Mercy bassist Ric Clayton, who was quickly replaced by Bob Heathcote). After Suicidal he remained active in the local Venice music scene, working with Uncle Slam and Horny Toad!, among others. He most recently joined up with fellow ex-Suicidal members Grant Estes and Amery Smith, as well as Excel vocalist Dan Clements and former No Mercy singer Kevin "The Jerk" Guercio, to form a new band called AgainST. He has recently produced "Welcome 2 Venice" a punk compilation featuring 14 bands and 16 tracks on his label Built On An Ounce Records. Artists featured include current and former members of Suicidal Tendencies, Beowulf, Fear Factory, Creeper, Neighborhood Watch, Excel, and No Mercy.He also plays guitar for Fist of Fury, an OG punk band from venice.
