释义 |
HistoryJuly Fourth Toilet was founded in late 1993 by zine publisher Robert Dayton (later known for Canned Hamm) and cartoonist Julian Lawrence.[2] Their name was bestowed upon them by the Zip Code Rapists from a list of band names that was used to name several bands on the Amarillo Records label. They have had a loose cast of dozens of members throughout the years; long-time stalwarts include Stephen Hamm (Slow, Canned Hamm), Andre Lagace (Young and Sexy), Jody Franklin (MungBeing), and Clancy Dennehy. Each July Fourth Toilet's live performance is planned with a specific theme. They have done improvised sets, song-poems and covered entire albums by artists in tribute shows. They are also known for outlandish "bargain basement" theatrical costumes, audience confrontation and performance art antics.[3] They have played shows with the Zip Code Rapists, Sun City Girls, Three Day Stubble, Caroliner and Old Time Relijun. July Fourth Toilet contributed a track, "Hello Rock 'N' Roll Star", to the compilation album Vancouver Special, which was released in 2000 through Mint Records, with the proceeds going to charity.[4] They have also appeared on several other compilations. In 2004, July Fourth Toilet celebrated their tenth anniversary doing a live stage performance of Rock Fantasy, a K-Tel children's record from the 1970s. In 2006, they performed a tribute set to composer Paul Williams that he attended. In 2007, MungBeing magazine released their "long-lost" seven-inch record Childhood Will End online. The collective's studio album July Fourth Toilet Presents Balls Boogie Featuring Me And Bobby McGee was released in 2008.[2][5] Discography
