They have three records (that I know of) and they have something to offend just about everyone. A selection of some of their song titles: - Bomb the Boats and Feed the Fish - Fuck Me Dead - Elvis is Dead - I Left My Heart in Iran - Surfin' On Heroin - Rich and Bored - Third Homosexual Murder - Nazis They are more. As you may have guessed, most people would classify them as a 'punk' group (said he, vainly trying to avoid classifying them). I enjoy their tunes; a little humour, a good slam-dancing beat - they are a little like the Ramones (who I also enjoy). Imagine American Bandstand: "Well, Vicki, how would you rate 'Fuck Me Dead'?" "Well, Mr. Clark, it has a good beat, you can dance to it, I'd give it an 86." john m sellens - u of waterloo - decvax!watmath!jmsellens p.s. shouldn't this discussion move from net.music to net.records?
