 The distribution of their cassette was rather disappointing.  Though all 300 copies of their tape sold, Thunder Chicken had failed to capitalize on the burgeoning punk and alternative scene in Minot.  Succumbing to geographical distance and in-fighting, Thunder Chicken disbanded in the summer of 1993.

-Thunder Chicken was born in the summer of 1990.  Bruce Wuollet, (who had previously been a guitarist in the band Orange Pirates, later called [[Nobody's Children]]), had convinced his good friend Kevin Habberstad to buy an electric bass from the Sears catalog.  Kevin bought the bass and taught himself to play.

-At the beginning of the summer, Lyle had bought his first drumset, a blue-flake mix of Slingerland and Ludwig brand drums.  He too taught himself how to play.  Hearing of this, Kevin and Bruce had asked their friend Lyle to join them.  The experienced guitarist and the two self-starters practiced frequently in the basement of Bruce's mother's house.  They played many cover songs from bands like Green Day, The Pixies, All, Danzig, The Misfits, and Nirvana.  During this summer they also began to write their own songs.
