Artist description
It is a revelation in many ways,
offering a glimpse of the band behind a myth,
and how prose is honed and developed over time.
Songs that show an angry, concerned,
heavy thinker/drinker and hard working guy,
flitting from one personal crisis to the next,
all the while writing feverishly, hoping for
that big break in the bestRockin roll tradition.
A band with total beliefin thier convictions
and abilities and a crystalline sense of destiny,
a band with a capacity for compassion and
romanticism, satire and subversion, who would
go on to achieve fame and notoriety because of
this. There is everything here that comprises
an extremely accessable band, honesty, hilarity,
and total eloquence. Vegetating in pursuit of
leisure or talking about what you’re going to do.
As the good doctor himself would say, buy the
ticket, take the ride. |

Press Reviews
Formed in 1978, the band's sarcastic, almost nihilistic, stance, formed the basis of a recorded career that never quite captured the band's stroppy, chaotic live shows. The debut album, was, nevertheless, a searing document of the band's potent rock 'n' roll, despite some primitive attitudes to women and homosexuals. Animated by a musical ability far beyond many of their peers, and fortified by Schiller bar blues vocal presence this band is a deeply disturbing wade of gunk that is why the internet is so cool . |
