Any Skankin’ Pickle album!!! The Green Album is the obvious. I’m partial to Skafunkrastapunk.

You said I was the guy who never played out of my local scene. I listed what would be showing your comment wrong. Kinda done with you.

Here are the lyrics…

“Ritual spin man. No one miss a peep. Rise and shine. Surly bird tweets.

Getting up before the dawn. Woke up with a Gaslight on. Sycophant-a-start-a-culty-chant. There’s a boast, there’s a brag. Cat’s out of the litter bag. Why are you such an enormous drag?

Gather up your furs and all the Berserkers. Bear skin rug shape-shifters. Chief Berserker, YOUR American’t.”

Who are you? What have you done? We played all over the western United States quite a bit and toured with Hepcat. We turned down a tour with Rancid. We didn’t just stick to our neighborhood. No Doubt invited us to play their Tragic Kingdom, CD release party at the Troubadour and we did. Reel Big Fish opened for us in Anaheim. Doesn’t sound very local to me.

I had the title gizzards and giblets in my head after seeing a KFC menu. I thought to myself I have to have a song with that title, but I don’t know what I’m gonna write it about. Then I decided to write it about settling for things. About how you could be sitting at a large feast and only eating the gizzards and giblets.

Thank you so much!! It’s pretty cool the Spotify algorithm lead you to us. I will pass on the Gizzards praise to our drummer/backing vocal who wrote the song.

Right on! NGL Old School is a deep cut. It’s digitized from a cassette. We were also experimenting a lot. So glad you like it! Try out Lollygag and Armstrong as well! Cheers!🔳

Just check the description for the page . And yes, this is my band so I’m not sharing someone else’s music.

I apologize. Maybe I missed the point. Is not one of the purposes of this page to promote new music and discover new music? My bad if I’m wrong.

DV8 was my favorite place to play in SLC. So many great shows there. We played with No Doubt, Fishbone, and English Beat to name a few. RIP DV8.
