Jello Vs Dead Kennedys Pt ??
03/15/07
.
(punkbands) Jello Biafra has issued a public statement condemning his former bandmates in the Dead Kennedys for licensing their classic song, "Too Drunk to F**k" to the upcoming Quentin Tarantino / Robert Rodriguez double feature, Grindhouse. Biafra's objections specifically stem from the song's placement in the film, in a rape scene: The scene is actually in the "Planet Terror" film directed by Rodriguez. Tarantino himself is pointing a gun at a disabled amputee woman's head yelling "Dance, Bitch!" as the Nouvelle Vague cover of "Too Drunk to F**k" plays from a boombox. Some people will do anything for money. I can't help but think back to how prudish Klaus Flouride was when he objected to H.R. Giger's painting on the "Frankenchrist" poster, saying he couldn't bear to show it to his parents. I'd sure love to be a fly on the wall when he tries to explain putting a song in a rape scene for money to his teenage daughter [not that his daughter would get the wrong idea from the song title... see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
