about

It was always a pleasure when The Weirdos came around looking to record some new material. Although they never sold anything these guys had their heads in the right place and were so worldly to deal with. I couldn't help feeling an affinity with their musical perforations and I believe that they were pioneering a pathway beyond the mundane and clouded perceptions that closeted the timid ones into the plastic wrap safety valve of the spectacle society.

Recorded live one summers day in 1995 deep down in the wicked slopes of the Pioneer Valley...Behold! A cellar in Aldenville, MA, that had recently been overflown with raw, putrefying sewage. What were we all doing down here? Sipping vodka and lime, singing hey ho while Rick painstakingly created the stop motion action figure video that included brief interludes of us beating each other up?

This is their masterpiece.
