One of PWEI's best jams!

Augusta, Georgia, late September,
One Mr. Brown's hot tempeed,
This man's possessed, he's restless,
Armed and dangerous, drugged and reckless.
Mrs. Brown you've got a lovely son
But he's on the run on a shotgun mission
"Listen here cocksuckers, motherfuckers, pay respect to my building.
It's JB property and it could be the one you get killed in."
Cops arrive, "What's this, what's happening,
What's what, where's the hot shot?"
James pressed his luck too far this time,
His pick-up truck's flat out and flying.
Cops get excited and grin with glee;
They got themsevles a celebrity!
7 cars give chase "You're in the clear, this is the race of the year!"
"Faster Soul Master, they're coming at you from all directions,
Speed's your protection...Don't look behind you 'til south Carolina"
Cops spring a roadblock "He ain't gonna stop!"
"He's gonna take a pop!"
Someone opens fire, the trucks front tyres are blown out
"Get the hell out!"
As six mile skid, trapped in a ditch,
In the lap of the FBI, the Secret Service,
The Russians, "they're all in this, they're doing it to James
Like they did it to Elvis"
A "good-foot" dance in a dusted trance
Breath tested "No Chance!" Arrested!

I still have a cache of cassette tapes I'm not willing to let go of - including all of the released Skinny Puppy cassettes, Rossini's Barber of Saville, Caramon (Bizet), and a whack of classical (Bethovan, Stravinsky, Chopin, Tchaikovsky, Phillip Glass) , the Brown Album from Bootsauce and some Pop Will Eat Itself (PWEI)

Unfortunately, without thinking, I sold both my cassette players at my last garage sale, now I have nothing to play them on....

I blame Tony James and Sigue Sigue Sputnik and groups like Pop Will Eat Itself (PWEI)

*Discard because no one here seems to like PWEI or gets the absurdness of this video.

Definitely PWEI. I'm fond of their album "This Is the Day...This Is the Hour...This Is This!" It's beginning to sound dated but then it came out in 1989 and at the time was way ahead of the pack with mixing live instruments with sampling.

Here's one from that year, "Def Con One", notable because it samples from the Twilight Zone: http://youtube.com/watch?v=wPwNYX4qCkU

Pity, but I can't find a video for my favorite song, "Poison to the Mind". It's about alcoholism. It's on the ITMS, if you want to hear the first 60 secs through iTunes.

Cheers

The song is from a UK band called Pop Will Eat Itself (PWEI).
Yeah...I never heard of 'em either.
