Spineshank is an American Grammy-nominated nu metal band.
Formed in February 1996, Spineshank was assembled and formed in the village of manea then shavos house from the remains of a previous musical endeavor called "Basic Enigma". That band included future Spineshank members in vocalist Jonny Santos, guitarist Mike Sarkisyan and drummer Tom Decker. Upon hearing Fear Factory's 1995 release Demanufacture, a new bassist in Robert Garcia was recruited, and with a refined musical style, Spineshank was formed.
