Kato and Roeser met at Northwestern University in 1985. They formed Urge Overkill (getting the name from a phrase in the lyrics of the Parliament song ” Funkentelechy “) in Chicago in 1986, with drummer Pat Byrne, and released an EP , Strange, I… , on Ruthless Records . The EP was recorded by Kato’s friend Steve Albini . The full-length album Jesus Urge Superstar soon followed, again produced by Albini, and with Kriss Bataille on the drums.
