The Yuppie Pricks hold a schtick so ridiculously over-the-top, so laughably bizarre, so comically absurd that you can't really help but take notice. With a press release telling of the band's lavish lifestyles and greed-chasing outside endeavors (multimillion stockbroking, sitting heir to a pharmaceutical fortune), the Pricks accomplish, as their headline decrees, "Biafra [listening] to America and [answering] the mandate for conservative punk!" Tongue is shoved so far in cheek, reconstructive oral surgery wouldn't settle this mouth.

Fuck all you Jello haters. Go listen to blink-182, you're obviously to stupid to comprehend great punk music. Not-to-Regret: strange, people still seem to remember the dickies, the dead milkmen, and to a lesser extent, if only because they havent been around as long, the aquabats. I see the yuppie pricks every chance I get. they are the best band ever. the reverse physcology is ingeniues. They are the best thing to happen to punk ......since punk. and I tell them every time I see them. they rule !!! russ in dallas Have you guys checked out the website?? There's about a thousand photos of the lead singer and he weighs about a bill less than the '05 Biafra. It's not Jello. tell it to your mama, emo-boy... and btw, don't knock it 'til you've tried it - laughing once in awhile, that is. ha ha ha. see - it's not so hard. Joke bands will never be remembered, fuck this shit. DK's did it 20 years ago. "Score is for Leftover Crack "No. This score is for Leftover Crack." "Score is for Leftover Crack!" Yeah same here..damn kids i just creamed my pants oh yea. those teenie boppin kids loooooove jello biafra. i mean shit that's all i see at abercrombie stores these days. yup... dk and yellowcard, one and the same. fucking poseurs! "Jello does the GW Bush imitation in the "rap" song." So it's like a 21th-century FEAR, with the Dead Kennedys playing the tunes? Niiiiice. This is like the current hardcore punk version of The Upper Crust... and they apparently do the whole schtick live too, just like The Upper Crust. Jello has an ace voice. I like this band's name. Man...I had this idea for a hardcore band a long time ago but never did anything with it. It was gonna be called The Preston Hills Yaucht Club. Oh well, you snooze, you lose. At least I took the idea and made a short film. how can you listen to this shit. just listen to anything that jello has done. i cant take this singer seriously, sounds like he just practices to sound like jello RFTC's "Crack Party" > anything this album can come up with Haven't listened yet, but the description immediately gives me a "Dead Milkmen vibe"--snotty, three chord sarcasm. And the Queen thing seems eerily reminiscent of the Doors impersonation on "Bitchin' Camaro" i dont like the warble either. actually thats probably the main reason i was never a big dk fan Score is for Leftover Crack! i donbt really like it either Yeah, pretty much. Jello's better than any of your favorite frontmen. Am I the only one who is not a fan of Jello's trademark warble? Its not Jello, its some other guy who wants to be Jello. However, Jello does do guest voclas on "Damn It Feels Good To Be A Yuppie" it sounds almost identical to Jello......which isn't a bad thing at all......but on their site it says it's some other guy....either the site is lying or this guy just really loves jello. great stuff. i m gonna say that that is jello biafra, no one sounds that similar. and the topics seem like his hilarity sounds great.....who cares if its not original....it sounds great Sorry- HeWhoCorrupts already has your lame shtick and frankly, they blow your fucking nuts off. it'd be awesome if it were true. That first mp3 was just terrible, the second was eh This is amazing. |
