I recently had a conversation with someone who labled The Cramps as deviant art, I don't really disagree but I really don't mind either.
The Cramps - Music on FoxyTunes Planet (http://www.foxytunes.com/artist/the_cramps#/track/people_aint_no_good)
Judge for yourselves and fell free to give me your idea of what constitutes "Deviant Art" ?

what the hell is "deviant art" supposed to mean anyways?



is a picture of a politician coupled with a picture of war not a hilight of the deviance of aforementioned politician?

is porn deviant art?




is the art of war not deviant?

To me, sounds like they have a garage, punk-bluesy sound. At least that's my impression of it, I wonder why I haven't heard of these guys, I love the sound.

They have been around since 72, they draw inspiration from 60's surf music , old style rockabilly , a touch of punk and more than just a sprinkling of psychobilly.
They often have sexual references in thier songs such as "What's Inside a Girl" and "Can Your Pussy Do The Dog" , they are often off the wall with titles such as "Eyeball In MY Martini" , they also have a warped sense of humour that is shown in "All Women Are Bad" and "People Ain't No Good".

I grabbed the album Bad Music For Bad People (and saw the album cover was your old av!) and wow what an album. The lead singer has a deviant attitude on how he delivers the lyrics. I understand what your friend means now.

I'm sure glad you made this post, I needed a new kind of kick just like Susie needs dick!

Me ?
Deviant ?
How could you think such a thing ? ;)

I would also reccomend "Stay Sick" , Rolling Stone said "This record may not save your soul â?? in fact, it definitely won't â?? but it'll make you feel damned good."

I love "Bikini Girls With Machine Guns"
"I got my own ideas about the righteous kick,
You can keep the reward, I'd just as soon stay sick."
