(almost) 20 years later: 2 LIVE CREW "As Nasty As They Wanna Be"

[Sorry Isnt Good Enough]

Holy cow I just found this album on iTunes!.  Yes, this album is porno level explicit, but the irony of the whole ordeal was that 2 Live Crew was a brilliant act with an original Miami Bass machine sound without the profanity, they would have been a hit either way.  They were way ahead of their time and I now hold that album in the same regard as Ulysees, The 120 Days of Sodomy, Deep Throat, American Psycho, and other "obscene" works of art.  They dared to sing about the enjoyment of male heterosexual sex right at the end of the 80's.  This is a great album to piss people off with, and a great PATRIOTIC (adult) AMERICAN thing to listen to!!!!!!!

I'll take Lords Of Acid anyday.

[Sorry Isnt Good Enough]

when were they out?  I only have like 2 of their songs, some dude used to play "show me your pussy" nonstop in the barracks or whatever.   Little too dark for my tastes, but still good stuff.  Kind of like KMFDM.

Lord's of Acid just made great fun of any sexual anything. Their live shows were lets say... more then just suggestive. And yeah they were the sexier siblings of KDFDM. They even toured together.

I guess if they are to be labeled they were mid-nineties techno dance. Still can download their stuff though. But you have to take it in jest.. yes they came out with with Spank my Booty, and they also came out with songs like My dog Named ?, like I said they basically had a lot of fun with the crazy things people will do sexualy speaking. It was a mixed group, female singer with the rest male.

I was in Germany right after the obscenity trial. We had a 1st Sergeant named Martinez. One day after work at end of day formation somebody from the MP unit the next started blasting "Fuck Martinez" I thought everybody including the 1st Sergeant was going to bust a gut laughing.

"Fuck Martinez" has been removed from Banned In The USA, for some reason.  These guys has major stones cutting that record at that point in history, and Luke Skyywalker went head to head with quite a few Messerschmitts in the overall gender war.  I got into them because of their Miami sound, but when I heard the government telling me they were the bad guys, I bought all their albums.
