Advantages: A Classic Country Album Disadvantages: You really need a sense of humor to appreciate the joke
In the annuals of punk rock an album like this has never been recorded before or since it is completely unique. Mojo Nixon described it as a "Near Death Experience", his other co-conspirator says that you need a sense of humor to listen to it, despite that it was a fantastic album. The whole thing kicked off when Mojo Nixon and the Toadliquors recorded a version of the Dead Kennedys classic "Wineabago Warrior" for the compilation that marked the ... ...former Deak Kennedys vocalist Jello Biafra decided that since a load of rednecks listened to country music and committed suicide it was time that Tipper Gore (Wife of Al Gore and pro-censorship campaigner) needed to be made aware of this, so Jello and Mojo went off to Texas and recorded a country album.
The sarcasm meter on the album is way into the red especially on the cover version that they choose to do. "Love Me I'm a Liberal" is a prime example ...
Advantages: Fanstastic Lyrics and Music Disadvantages: None at all, but may be too much for some folk
...DOA, and this gem "The Sky is Falling and I Want My Mommy" with NOMENSNO. This album is almost perfect as it is almost impossible to not only pick out the best track on it, but it is impossible to spot a single duff moment. Lyrically it is awesome featuring some of Jello's most insightful, inspired and paranoid lyrics, musically it is one of the best things that has been released on Alternative Tentacles. The combination of Jello's lyrics and NOMEANSNO's ... ...Kicking off with "The Sky is Falling and I Want My Mommy (falling Space Junk)" with its tectonic slabs of rhythm punctuated by Rob and John Wrights Drum and Bass whilst Andy Kerr's guitar buzzes around. This is Jello's paranoid vision of what would happen to society when we all realize that we are going to die horrible deaths when all radioactive junk that NASA fires into space comes back down. Imagine night of the living dead meets 28 Days. "Jesus ...
Advantages: It's Great, Jello is making music again Disadvantages: Only doing a few dates in the US
...news sources that you would never have heard off, and it is also good questioning material. He once ran for major of San Francisco, promising to open up an office of bribery, and came in 4th as well as being nominated as a green party candidate in the 2000 presidential election. On top of all that he is the owner of Alternative Tentacles records through which he has been responsible for releasing some truly unique and ground breaking bands such as ... ...passing interest in alternative music should give it a try go on you know you want to……..
Dedicated to the memory of John Peel without whom I’d never have heard of Jello Biafra or The Melvins and a whole heap of other artists. I am really gonna miss him. ...
Advantages: Hard, unconventional rock Disadvantages: An acquired taste
Rap-Metal group Rage Against the Machine released their self-titled debut album in 1992, but the music is just as relevant today as it was back then. Songs like 'Take the Power Back' and 'Freedom' are about individual exploitation by the cultural, social, and political systems in society, and how the people must be willing to rise up and overcome such oppression. You may have also recently heard about the small matter of 'Killing in the Name' beating ... ...when you first listen to Rage is that they mean business. The whole album is intended to provide voice to the silent minority: Those individuals that feel neglected and abused are given hope through the band's resonant, unashamed, confrontational expression. Guitarist Tom Morello's anomalous riffs, rhythmic special effects and extended tapping techniques were some of the most powerful sounds to come from a guitar in that era, and remain unchallenged ...
Advantages: Pirate metal just rules Disadvantages: one iffy song

I love the guitarring its really catching and the drums are excellent. Lyrics are immense and stick in your head 'So have no fear and dont look back the afterlife awaits' I love that line espesially I dont know why.
