Biography

edit

The band, often erroneously assumed to be named after the one inch punch technique made famous by Bruce Lee, was actually named after an office supply frontsman Justin Warfield saw while looking for inspiration at the office supply store Staples.[1] The band was officially formed in 1995 and found some success in the UK. Its only album, Tao of the One Inch Punch, was released in September 1996 on Hut Records.

The group's song "Pretty Piece of Flesh" was featured on the Romeo + Juliet soundtrack, and the track "Gemini" was featured on The Edukators soundtrack.
