The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars ------------Jack Kerouac

Once upon a time, in his own personal hell, Jay Sparrow decided his fate. You learn a lot about yourself while lying on a bathroom floor with the bottle of Jack Daniel's still in your hand. After doing a solo record and still feeling empty he needed something more...

More whiskey?

Maybe, but why not start with finding a band?

Besides, four screwed up minds has got to be better than one...right?

So who are these guys and why are they so pissed off?! This record is as frantic as a six day cocaine binge. From stories of killers in Omaha to the lives of Elvis and Priscilla, this "Texas Punk" band is raw and loud as hell.

Produced by Gordie Johnson (Big Sugar, Grady) at Willie Nelson's legendary studio "Pedernales"(Austin, Texas), Murder City Sparrows created a real rock sound with none of that fancy overdub crap. They bring their no bullshit attitudes and blunt force (like a bottle across the head) to the stage at every show. Want a hit?
