Music Video LinksArtist BiographyAvailable in:
Gorky's Zygotic Mynci were a Welsh alternative rock band, formed in Carmarthen, west Wales in 1991. They sang songs in both Welsh and English. They split up in May 2006.
While in the band, Childs said that one of the most frequent questions he was asked was about the origin of the band's name. After struggling to come up with one, they decided "we might as well stick with the most ridiculous crap name we could think of."
Gorky's came from the word "gawky"; Lawrence says that "gork" was school slang for a dimwit.
Zygotic was "hijacked from GCSE biology"; it was derived from the word zygote, something pertaining to a fertilized egg cell.
Mynci is a misspelling of the word "monkey" using Welsh spelling rules, rather than a direct Welsh translation, and is pronounced like "monkey".
