Collaborations and Associations

In 1989, he formed the musical entity Blood Axis, for which he does the vocals and writes the music. Moynihan was an associate of the experimental musician Boyd Rice, at one point sharing an apartment with him in Denver. Beginning correspondence with him in 1988, Rice invited him to go to Japan and collaborate with him on some NON performances there in 1989. Moynihan performed in concert with Tony Wakeford, Douglas P., and Rose McDowell (the Osaka, Japan show was captured on the Live in Osaka DVD). An album titled Music, Martinis, and Misanthropy grew out of this collaboration. He moved to Denver in 1990. He was a part of the Abraxas Foundation, appearing, with Rice, on the "neo-nazi satanism" night of Bob Larson's Christian radio show. During this time he was questioned by the Secret Service about a plot to assassinate then President George H. W. Bush; he was subjected to a polygraph test, no charges were filed.
