Gorilla Voltage

Hailing from San Jose, California, Gorilla Voltage are a vicious and energetic hip hop duo. Gorilla Voltage features an array of diversity with MC's ClockworC and Mr. Grey; the latter also engineers and sometimes produces their studio recordings, and released a solo album in 2012. Gorilla Voltage was founded under the name the Damn Dirty Apes, and the duo self-released an album under that name in 2015. As it happened, at least two other bands were already using the name "the Damn Dirty Apes," so they adopted the new handle Gorilla Voltage. By this time, ClockworC and Mr. Grey had found mentors in the established hip hop act Twiztid, who took the group on tour as their opening act. In 2017, after Twiztid formed their own label, MNE, Gorilla Voltage were added to their roster. Their first album under their new name, Ape-X, arrived in February 2017. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
