What can you expect from a band with a name like Sudden Infant? A bunch of fucking noise, mostly.
Personal favorite: Angelic Agony, as it used to cause my ex fits of laughter whenever she heard it… without which I probably never would have figured out what the singer was… singing?
The best most annoying song ever! DEVO’s Jocko Homo.
Here’s a quote about it from this great interview with Mark Mothersbaugh.
O: Is it true that Devo once opened for Sun Ra?
MM: Yeah, in 1974. He almost never came out on stage, because there were fist fights between the audience and Devo. They were doing tequila sunrise out of a big 50-gallon vat and taking… What drug were they taking? Oh, the one you inhale. Laughing gas or something. It was Halloween in Cleveland, Ohio, and somebody hired Devo as a joke. We were dressed in janitor outfits, and they were all dressed like hunchbacks and vampires, and permutations of lowest-common-denominator Halloween costumes. LCD horror. They ended up getting really pissed off at us and the music we were playing. At the time, we were a lightning rod for hostility. We would play a song like “Subhuman Woman” for seven minutes. We’d play “Jocko Homo” for 30 minutes, and we wouldn’t stop until people were actually fighting with us, trying to make us stop playing the song. We’d just keep going, “Are we not men? We are Devo!” for like 25 minutes, directed at people in an aggressive enough manner that even the most peace-lovin’ hippie wanted to throw fists. We were in a negative-energy vortex back in the mid-’70s.
I have arbitrarily decided that Wednesdays will be the days I post obscure and possibly very bad music by bands found on Myspace.
Today’s little gem is a man from Switzerland calling himself Reverend Beat-Man.

I’ve long argued that car “accidents” can be a lot of fun, like a free roller coaster ride that comes out of nowhere, and I am in something of a mood…. so here’s something terrible for you to put into your eyes:
Boyd Rice, what can we say about him? What is said about him? That he is the godfather of industrial music, and that the Nine Inch Nails logo is either a tribute, or a rip-off, of his own pseudonym. That he has a wonderful sense of humor, particularly when it comes to practical jokes such as appearing as a guest on Race and Reason, or trying to make a gift of a skinned sheep’s head to a former First Lady. Yes, this and so much more….
But what does he have to say, about us?
I don’t know how he does it, but here’s some genuinely lovely shit.
