The Touch & Go Years
"We're The Meatmen And You Suck", the first Touch & Go album and the band's debut long player continues to be a brisk seller as generation after generation of youngsters discover the quaint wisdom of their funny uncle Tesco. "Crippled Children Suck" is the band's second 7" EP, and we've put it onto a 12" record and added a bunch of demos to round out a full LP's worth of tunes. "Blow Me Jah" is a track from the original EP, the meaning is pretty direct for those of you with a literary inclination.
"Stud Powercock: The Touch and Go Years" is just that, a compact disc only compilation of every record THE MEATMEN ever released on the label. That means you get "We're The Meatmen And You Suck", "Crippled Children Suck" and the Tesco Vee 12" EP "Dutch Hercules" on one handy little disc. This includes live tracks and demos, the complete MEATMEN experience as it first happened. Makes 2 Live Crew sound like Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, makes Gwar sound like a bunch of art students. THE MEATMEN were IT when it mattered and now there's no excuse for anyone to do without.
