THE UBANGIS "Drop Another Coin" DeCeased
|
The Ubangis are for those trashabilly fans who think the
Cramps are too classy. This local trio's "Drop Another Coin" draws
on the same musical sources (rockabilly, surf music, '50s movie
themes) and explores the same themes (sex, death, horror movies) as
the Cramps, but with an added dollop of tastelessness: Emulating the
'50s racists who thought "Ubangi" was just about the funniest name
imaginable, the band makes jokes about cannibalism and the
difficulty of speaking "with a plate in my lip."
No doubt drummer, vocalist and principal songwriter Brian D.
