Spineshankis an American industrial rock, nu metal band. Began in February of 1996, rising from the ashes of a previous band, (which included future Spineshankers Jonny Santos on vocals, Mike Sarkisyan on guitars, and Tom Decker on drums). Basic Enigma broke up upon hearing Demanufacture, the 1995 release by electro-metallists Fear Factory, but soon reformed with a different sound and moniker, and a new bassist (Robert Garcia). The band soon befriended Fear Factory guitarist Dino Cazares, who upon hearing their demo, offered the new band to open a show for F.F. at the Whiskey A-Go-Go in Los Angeles.

Tear Me Down Lyrics
Spineshank
You wear a cheap disguise
Your only vice until the end
Don't have an alibi, you never try
You just condemn
You pressure everything
You never bring, you take away
I can no longer breathe
You've taken me and everything too
Far, to me it's so disgusting
Wrong, I'll push myself away
Far, my sanity is rusting
Wrong, I look the other way
This is a war I can't fight
I can't let you tear me down
I will ignore all these lies
You will never tear me down
I sit and contemplate
How you sedate what's in my head
I will not instigate or emulate
I won't pretend
You'll never understand
You just demand to get your way
How all of this began
I never ran and now it's gone too
Far, to me it's so disgusting
Wrong, I'll push myself away
Far, my sanity is rusting
Wrong, I look the other way
This is a war I can't fight
I can't let you tear me down
I will ignore all these lies
You will never tear me down
Never tear me down
