With a sound similar to Alice in Chains, AC/DC, the Cult, D-A-D and Guns N' Roses, but with enough of their own distinctive and original style, Circus of Power received significant critical fame, especially in the UK's Kerrang!

Members have included vocalist Alex Mitchell, guitar players Ricky Mahler and Gary Sunshine, and drummer Ryan Maher.

In December 2008, Mitchell informed circusofpower.net that Rock Candy Records would issue a remastered release of Circus of Power's eponymous debut album.

[7] A reunion show was held on June 27, 2009, at the Knitting Factory in Los Angeles to promote the reissue and celebrate Club Vodka's seventh anniversary.

After some solo efforts and a few one-off "reunion" gigs, Mitchell added Fat Nancy and Captain Zapped to the lineup.
