they're one of my favorites! totally original, great music. did you ever see them play live?
i just foolishly attempted to come up with my favorite jesus lizard record. that was a mistake - all their records are so fucking good. so many classic songs... my first exposure to them was their show cd (live at cbgb's). that's a good one, "ladies and gentlemen, mr richard simmons..."

I did see them live, once, at the Underworld in Camden circa "Goat", Yow came on stage with his nads hanging out of his pants but, crucially, not his penis. I stroked his sweaty head. I LOVE THESE GUYS.

used to like them when i was a spotty teenager, grown up since then though.
incidentally if you any one wants to make me an offer on my red vinyl version of 'liar' or a blue vinyl version of the 7" split they did with nirvana i'd be more than happy to get rid of them.

those sound cool, but i'm sure i couldn't afford them.
i had bought the lash triple-vinyl years ago from touch and go, and there was two copies of the same record in there. luckily, i also have bang on cd.

one thing that's easy to over look is that yow's lyrics are really excellent. usually, you can't really understand half the things he's yelling, but if you actually read the words, he's very, very good. but that shouldn't be a surprise - scratch acid also had fantastic lyrics.

his interpretation of lyrics is unbelievable.....when he shouts " i can't swim !! " i can really believe that. he's mad. where does he take inspiration for lyrics from ? i haven't read any interviews with him

hah, that's a good question. i read an interview years ago where he was talking about his lyrics, but unfortunately, i have no idea where that is now. i'll try and find it again.

" If Jesus was a woman would you try to date her or fuck her?
Yow: If The Jesus Lizard was a woman...?
No, if Jesus Christ was a woman, would you try to date her or fuck her?
Yow: You mean, like if she was alive? "
hahaha oh yes

my mates had a school band and played "monkey trick" sometimes. i was to join them to sing it but didn't have tho. i regretted that later, cause it did sound good when they played that.
