Kraven Mohrhead was born to be a metal god.

From his humble beginnings in Dublin; his mother was a bartender/dancer. His father…well, let’s just say papa was a Rolling Stone, although mama couldn’t say for sure which one.

Much of Kraven’s early childhood was spent backstage, where he was lavished with the kind of love that only a brandy-filled bar full of exotic dancers could dole out. But still his mama wanted to raise her boy right, so she saved as many $2 bills as she could to invest in his future.

Finally, at the age of 10, Kraven was sent to a private Catholic school for boys, run by the Sisters of Holy Touching. Kraven thrived in this environment of firm discipline and harsh physical punishment.

When he was 15, the school was involved in a scandal, and subsequently deemed unfit by the Pope after it was discovered that Kraven had been systematically deflowering the Sisters during his punishment sessions, teaching them a thing or two about “holy touching”, Kraven style.

In a quest to find himself, he turned his angry energy to the guitar….and a metal god was born.

At the age of 16 Kraven packed up and moved to Beverly (his Aunt in LA) where he later met the likes of Rod Gozinya and Sy Kotik, and eventually found Dick Fitzwell in that seedy pawn shop on Sunset Blvd. The rest – like so many other things – became history.
