The discography of The Mr. T Experience, a Berkeley, California-based punk rock band formed in 1985, consists of ten studio albums, five EPs, and nine singles. The Mr. T Experience formed in 1985 with an initial lineup of singer/guitarists "Dr. Frank" Portman and Jon Von Zelowitz, bassist Byron Stamatatos, and drummer Alex Laipeneiks. Their debut album ''Everybody's Entitled to Their Own Opinion'' was released in 1986 on local label Disorder Records. ''Night Shift at the Thrill Factory'' followed in 1988 through Rough Trade Records, who also released their EP ''Big Black Bugs Bleed Blue Blood'' in 1989. Stamatatos left the band and was replaced by Aaron Rubin, and when Rough Trade went out of business the band moved to Lookout! Records, where they would remain for the rest of their career. They released ''Making Things with Light'' in 1990, and both the ''Milk Milk Lemonade'' album and ''Strum ünd Bang, Live!?'' EP in 1992. Zelowitz left the band, leading to a brief breakup, but Portman, Rubin, and Laipeneiks decided to carry on as a trio and released the ''Gun Crazy'' EP and ''Our Bodies Our Selves'' album in 1993. Laipeneiks then left the band, leading to another breakup, but they reformed with new drummer Jim "Jym" Ruzicka for the EP ''...And the Women Who Love Them'' in 1994. Rubin then left the group and was replaced by Joel Reader. The lineup of Portman, Ruzicka, and Reader remained stable and released an album each year over a four-year period: ''Love is Dead'' (1996), ''Revenge is Sweet, and So Are You'' (1997), a cover version of the Ramones' ''Road to Ruin'' (1998), and ''Alcatraz'' (1999). Lookout! also released an expanded version of ''Big Black Bugs Bleed Blue Blood'' in 1997 with 24 additional tracks culled from the band's EPs, singles, and various compilation albums. Reader then left the band and Portman released a solo album. With new bassist Gabe Meline The Mr. T Experience released the EP ''The Miracle of Shame'' in 2000, which also included temporary Hammond organ player Erik Noyes. Meline left the band in 2002 and was replaced by "Bobby J" Jordan, while Ted Angel also joined as second guitarist.
