History
Los Angeles' Bullet Boys had elements of Van Halen and Krokus when they hit the glam metal scene with the debut album. Torian was often compared to Lee Roth, but many female fans were disappointed by his rumoured homosexuality. The band had garnered a buzz for being sheparded by Van Halen producer and A&R Ted Templeman with whom the band achieved a great sound on the first three albums.
The band's debut was the band's best-selling and even hit the Billboard Top 40 in the USA. The band went its separate ways in the mid-‘90s, but came back again in 2000 with a sampler and a US tour.
The band recorded Sophie independently in 2003 aiming for a 2004 release. A US tour with L.A. Guns and Black 'n Blue was cut short when the band's tour manager Mark Rojas was stabbed by the band's bus driver. Burning Cats & Amputees is a band sampler with a new track. Sweda is running Monsters Making Music. The band set a release date of April, 2007 for its live album Behind The Orange Curtain. Ryan Haffer recorded the album at the Galaxy Theatre in Santa Ana, California. The band signed with Chavis Records in 2008. An album was expected that summer. Instead, the group completed its new album, 10c Billionaire (notice Torien’s project name), for July of 2009. The band was singer Marq Torien, Ryche Green, Stephen Allan, and Tory S. Several song titles were Asteroid, Blessed By Your Touch and Born To Breed. Bullet Boys singer Marq Torien (Mark Maytorena) was arrested on Friday November 13th in Florida and charged with "non-support of children or spouse” before being released.
