| | Dead Kennedys Bedtime For Democracy CD Dead Kennedys Discography of CDs
Although nobody knew it at the time, this was to be the Dead Kennedys' final official studio album; exhausted by the legal battle brought on by their previous album FRANKENCHRIST, they threw in the towel shortly after recording this one. Fortunately, they go out here in a blaze of angry glory.
BEDTIME FOR DEMOCRACY is arguably their most explicitly political album. It's full of furious, supersonic punk assaults on Reagan-era topics, including the Rambo movies ("Rambozo the Clown"), media brainwashing ("Fleshdunce"), fashionable politics ("Anarchy for Sale"), and even punk rock itself ("Chickenshit Conformist"). There's also a hilarious version--certainly the fastest ever recorded--of David Alan Coe's anthem of blue collar dissatisfaction, "Take This Job and Shove It."
Digitally remastered (by the original sound engineer) reissue of the DK's final studio album features 21 tracks, including 'Chickshit Conformist', 'Hop With The Jet Set', Anarchy For Sale'. A 2001 Manifesto release.
Additional personnel includes: Tim Jones (synthesizer); Jayed Scotti (timbales); Cal Andrew, Blaze (background vocals).
All tracks have been digitally remastered.
Recorded at City Sound and Hyde Street Studios, San Francisco, California.
The Dead Kennedys: Jello Biafra, Klaus Flouride, D.H. Peligro, East Bay Ray.
Q (6/01, p.127) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...On release, these black comedies were considered alarmist..."
NME (Magazine) (3/17/01, p.31) - 6 out of 10 - "...Internal friction had comprismised the DK's 'espirit de corps'....Songs like 'Anarchy For Sale' and 'Chickens*** Conformist' chart the comodification of punk values..."

Bedtime For Democracy album
$13.89
In today's musical climate, change is often dictated by the instability and turmoil within the recording industry. However, as Jackson Rohm can attest, change in an artist can happen organically through experience, musical growth and simply being willing to try new things. With 1200 shows under his belt and over 14,000 albums sold, Jackson Rohm has moved from playing predominantly pop/rock to finally finding a suitable niche in country music with his new release, 'Long Way From Moving On'. Recorded in Nashville, the album has garnered much early release praise and is Jackson's biggest production to date. 'In the past, we've recorded the songs with more of a piecemeal approach in the studio, assembling each song part by part. First, we would lay down drums and bass and overdub other instruments later. But this project was different. We cut live with some of the best musicians on the planet and their ability to work creatively together made a huge difference.' Many people have asked Jackson, whose success has enabled him to fill his tour schedule many months in advance, 'why the move to country?' ...
