EZ-Street was a pre Faith No More, pre Metallica band.

[edit] History

The band formed in Hayward, California in the late 70's. The band included future Metallica bassist Cliff Burton, future Faith No More guitarist "Big" Jim Martin and future Faith No More/Ozzy Osbourne drummer Mike "Puffy" Bordin, all of whom were still in high school. Additional members included singer Kevin Costa and guitarist Danny Magalhaes. The band finished fourth in the 1979 Hayward Area "Battle of the Bands" where their three-song set included a rousing cover of Lou Reed's "Rock and Roll."

Martin and Burton would continue to perform together after EZ-Street disbanded under the name "Agents of Misfortune."
