The Mulchmen were an instrumental surf rock band based in Dayton, Ohio, during the late 1990s.[1][2] Their style combined the surf guitar influence of Dick Dale or Link Wray, early British punk, and the use of a theremin. They have opened for bands such as Dick Dale, Man or Astro-man?, Los Straitjackets, and The Breeders.

After the band dissolved, guitarist Nick Kizirnis joined Eyesinweasel, a side project of Tobin Sprout. He recorded a solo album entitled "Into the Loud" and a rockabilly album called "Go Crazy Pop!" on ATOM Records.
