Mostly, a half-funny parody of church bands, I assume. Google was pretty sparse and AMG laughed at me. That their liner notes are all sub- Platinum Jive doesn't help either. However, their Put A Little Love In Your Heart is weirdo tape fuckery (as is God Don't Need No Ph.D) and I like it. Who were these goonballs?

[Album: 50 Year Reunion
Label: Bulletproof
Year: 1998]

They were a group of high-school kids (mostly if not all) from Austell, Georgia, some of whom went on to be Joe Christmas and then Summer Hymns. The latter still knocks around in Athens.

The things you find in the dollar bin of the local thrift stores! Pretty good for high schoolers.

Weirdest/crappiest album I have ever found so of course I keep it as a secret gem. They claimed themselves as some really long and bizarre genre on the CD I got. They sampled White Snake in their song "Heaven-Yes, Hell-No" and I'm really sorry that my friend actually had to pay money for that.

Did he buy it new? And I dunno, I rather liked some of it.
