This is from their first album "Pottymouth", and they were still pretty raw when they they recorded the album in 1992. P.R.D.C.T. stands for Punk Rock Dream Come True. It's a really fun little song with lots of raw energy, but suffers from the poor recording. Vocals are a bit far back in the mix, the playing is energetic and unskilled (they got better...), but I can't help loving this song. A nice entertaining bit of do it yourself punk.
The band broke up in 1994, and its members all performed in different bands over the years, most notably Cold Cold Hearts. Bratmobile reformed in 1999 and released two later albums before breaking up again in 2004.
I never got to see Bratmobile perform live, although I did see Cold Cold Hearts (with Wolfe and Smith) play a few times.
Frustrated women, have to be in by twelve o'clock.

Surprisingly, none of the band members had ever been to Boston when they recorded the song. The Standells were a Los Angeles band, and the song was written by the band's producer after he was mugged during a trip to Boston.

It was released in 1977, and is generally grouped in with punk, although to me it's more of a punk-flavored novelty tune. The lyrics are all over the place, but mostly concern a drunken life. The English translation features a cat who has drunk all the singer's whiskey, the singer throwing up in a gutter, the singer's girlfriend calling him lazy, etc.
Although the song is credited to Plastic Bertrand, it's actually a bit of a Milli Vanilli thing, with the singing really provided by the record's producer, Lou Deprijck. A video was later made with Plastic Bertrand lip synching to Deprijck's vocals.

Marriott died in 1991, in a fire believed to be started by smoking in bed.

Panic In Detroit was included on the 1973 album "Aladdin Sane" (Which is a bit of nice wordplay itself: "A Lad Insane".)

The distorted fuzzy guitars and singer Mark Arm's deranged yelling epitomized early grunge. Mudhoney never had a lot of mainstream, success, but continue to tour and record today.

In 1968, based on his mother's palm reading prediction in his youth that his three daughters (her grandaughters) would form a popular music group, Austin Wiggin insisted that his daughters do just that. He pulled them out of school, bought them instruments, forced them to practice and booked shows at a local town hall.
The next year, the sisters, Dot, Helen, Rachael, and Betty, released their only studio album. It was called "Philosophy of the World", and was financed by their father. One Thousand copied were pressed. The guy who recorded and pressed it disappeared with the money and 900 copies.
The remaining 100 copies barely made a ripple, but one found its way to Frank Zappa, who played a few cuts from it on the Doctor Demento radio show. Zappa praised The Shaggs as "better than the Beatles", and eventually the album reached cult status. In 1980, the album was re-released by Rounder Records, and Rolling Stone Magazine chose The Shaggs as "Comeback of the Year". Later some previously recorded tracks were released as a second album "Shaggs Own Thing."
Musically, The Shaggs have an otherworldly quality, mostly as a result of their complete musical ineptitude. The songs in their heads (and on record) bear no relationship to anything usually categorized as music. The playing is bad, the singing is off-key and monotonous with strange cadences, and the lyrics border on insanity.
My Pal Foot Foot is about a neighbor's dog who is missing.
My pal's name is Foot Foot
He always likes to roam
My pal's name is Foot Foot
I never find him home
I go to his house
Knock at his door
People come out and say
Foot Foot don't live here no more
My pal Foot Foot
Always likes to roam
My pal Foot Foot
Now he has no home
Where will Foot Foot go
What will Foot Foot do
Oh, Foot Foot
I wish I could find you
I've looked here, I've looked there
I've looked everywhere
Oh, Foot Foot
Why can't I find you?
Foot Foot, where can you be?
Foot Foot, why won't you answer me?
Foot Foot, Oh Foot Foot
Wherever you are
I want you to come home with me
I don't have time to roam
I have things to do
I have to go home
Oh, Foot Foot, where are you?
If Foot Foot didn't like to roam so well
He would still have a place to dwell
Foot Foot, please answer me
I know where you are
You're behind that tree
Foot Foot, please come to me
Foot Foot, now that you're here
Won't you come home
Foot Foot, promise me this
That you will never again roam
A perfectly strange chunk of :music.
It already started in the city!
