Album Notes

The Walkin' Talkin' Toxins- The stage is littered with inflatable Love-dolls and trampolines, a camouflage backdrop and life-size Tony Montana, the band is ripping through a version of the Velvet Underground classic "Heroin" when gas-masked guitarist Dick Monster breaks into his solo...an acoustic punk-rock chainsaw solo.... Such is the scene for the surrealistic punk-rock guerilla theatre of The Walkin' Talkin' Toxins- Loud, fun, retro and ridiculous. The last remaining undiscovered punk rock band in Detroit, The Toxins bring a unique blend of old-school punk and really good background vocals blended with a unique love-doll driven insanity to their new five song E.P. "Meet The Toxins", a precursor to the full length album "Apocalypse Au-Go-Go". geocities.com/walkintalkintoxins. The Following is an introduction to the Toxins... KEITH CHRONIC... Lead singer with the morals of a mongrel and the wits of slope-browed oxen, this once and future king of punk rock once was arrested in Alexandria, Virginia for being drunk and walking... DICK MONSTER... Not What you might think; these are the top two names that he was called by his three and a half ex-wives. His influences are Wayne Newton and John Wayne Gacy. Convinced that rhythm guitar playing is actually full contact poetry. Mr. Monster claims to have actually visited the grave of Johnny Thunders and will visit the grave of Johnny Cash. For bookings at children's parties, contact his agent, Lew Cipher. MARK MACHETE... Esoteric guitarist who has done extensive research in the Columbian Rainforest. Mark is the only actual musician in the Walkin Talkin ToxinS. PAUL BEARER... Drummer. Plays drums. Really loud and really fast. DEAN DENIZEN... The Dumbledor of Retropunk. Dean is a string-thumping wizard of mythical proportions. His MAGIC BASS actually withstands the tormenting of the other toxins as he triumphantly defies neo post punkconventionalism. Ever the underground's undergroundsman, the only member of the toxins to remember the eighties. THE WALKIN TALKIN TOXINS ARE THE LAST REMAINING UNDISCOVERED PUNK ROCK BAND IN DETROIT.
