Did you ever go to eat a pork sausage....

and find its got hairs all over it?So, luckily for me, my sense of humor was pretty much fully formed by the time I was 14. That means I can still enjoy The Dead Milkmen. Way back in the day The Dead Milkmen, on their album Metaphysical Graffiti, introduced me to some people that I still like to visit frequently:There’s Cousin Earl. Earl runs a maggot farm that has 3 foot maggots. He does not like it when you confuse maggots with worms because a worm farm is for worms and a maggot farm is for maggots.His son Earl Jr. Earl Jr. had a tractor accident. This left him a bit strange in the head and he spent all of his college money dialing 976-Pigg and 976-Sheep. That’s right: Pigg with 2 Gs and Sheep which has 5 letters. He’s a sick boy.His daughter Eppie Sue, who looks more like a big pile of fungus than a little girl.His wife. No one knows her name because she doesn’t talk much. In fact, she can only say Dog-pussy. That’s right – it’s one big hyphenated word and it does not mean “dog and cat.”They even introduced me to their dinner: a wall eyed bass that Earl caught. It was a 27 eyed wall eyed bass and it could talk before Earl cut it open.And, of course, I have to mention Sarah Jane who they introduced me to in a different track on the album, although I don’t think she is related to Earl. Her hobbies include lowering children into open manholes. Which is kind of difficult because a lot of the children are taller than her, her being a midget and all. Not only a midget but a lesbian, left-handed, albino Eskimo.That is all. I don’t think I had enough coffee this morning. Or I had too much. Either way.

  2. Dale says I did enjoy that the nearest alternative station of my youth (91X, San Diego) would play "Instant Club Hit (You'll Dance To Anything)" and then follow it up with a Smiths song. Oh, the irony.

  3. chucky says SWozniak - if you are easily amused The Dead Milkmen is a must have. whosyrdad - funny (to me) story: We played Instant Club Hit at our wedding twice. I asked the dj to play Surfin' Cow but he got the wrong track and then I was in the bathroom when he played it so I asked him to play it again thinking he played Surfin Cow. And, it was during the dinner part of the reception so all my guests are chowing down and having their nerves jangled (twice) by Instant Club Hit.

  8. trashpicker says The Dead Milkmen are from Philadelphia. The Dead Milkmen write great songs. Dead Milkmen songs are funny and catchy. I played Dead Milkmen songs at my wedding. I played Dead Milkmen songs when I DJ'd a corporate event. The Dead Milkmen fucking rule. Love, James

  9. chucky says Torch - Stuart is my absolute favorite. Trashpicker - your comment makes me think of "We are not a local band. We are from outerspace. We don't even give a damn. We will probably smash your face." Must've been the cadence of it.

  10. Kid Charming says Chucky, this post was before I joined, and I just stumbled onto it through the DM artist page. I just want to chime in with a big ol' "Hell Ya!" I don't think this album gets the credit it deserves. I have to go do the Brown-Nose now.
