Strangulated Beatoffs – "Days Of Our Lives" (Death By Blowjob – DBB001) 1994


Anything to do with Drunks With Guns,the group not yer actual Drunks Brandishing K-Mart Assault rifles; has to be good,surely? Couple that with puerile song titles about licking Bum holes and Jacking off with Jacko, and you've instantly lost the Art crowd.Leaving the attentive listener free from negative vibes of sneering pseudo intellects unaware of the classical beauty of American Dirge Punk from the 1990's./1980's. Namely Kilslug,Flipper,Groinoids,Killdozer,and, of course Drunks With Guns......one of the great band names, I would suggest?
A Drunk With Gun is but one part of  the Strangulated Beatoffs as it 'appens. From an era when the possibilities of making music without guitars became possible,....desirable even.Crawling out of a rust-belt trailer park and fucked up on Meth-amphetamine,this is the lost american's version of the Industrial music so enamored by media studies students all over Europe. Not quite as brutal as those tooled up Drunks, but so unsophisticated it can still give your bollocks a damn fine kicking...which, incidentally they probably deserve.
Strictly an oversight,but one has noticed that not a single Drunk with gun has been previously posted on this site.I suppose this is a salacious opportunity to right that debatable wrong?
NEWSFLASH:Apparently, they did NOT break up, and are Waiting to have their Genesis covers lp released.
Lookin' forward to that one.

Tracklist:

1.Earth To Satan 3:43
2.Satans Pool Party 4:02
3.Untitled 0:15
4.Bewitched 1:59
5.Bothered 19:15
6.Bewildered 4:20
7.It Isn't Fair For You To Taunt Me 4:18
8.Pied Piper Of Hamelin 8:06
9.One Life To Live 11:00

That comment on the Genesis covers lp was three years ago. Hopefully, the tapes aren't buried in a box somewhere with some golf shirts and classified documents.

A post mentioning Drunks With Guns! You are truly a man of sophistication and good taste, Mr. Zchivago.

When are you going to post bands that aren't named the same as
what I was called in high school? ( except it wasnt "Big" stick)

I like to think so Mr. anonymous

Mike is touring a version of Drunks in the Midwest and East Coast US, but with no other original members. Weasel Walter has also remastered the first 3 DWG eps and is selling cds and LPS "now with treble". I think I'll stick with my nofi originals.

@ jeff...hmmm I dunno, i may be interested in those 'with treble' remasters.
Also interested in an AI version of DWG's too.This is the future.New music is getting shitter by the day,so get used to computer recreations of all our fave bands of the golden era of Rock. Abba did it, they're racking in mucho dollar.
