Rodney Anonymous Discography of CDs

Rodney Anonymous CD discography Crude, lewd, and defiantly immature, The Dead Milkmen were the punk equivalents of the characters in the movie ANIMAL HOUSE. If the members of The Dead Milkmen had been born 20 years earlier, they too might have been the kind of guys who sang dirty lyrics to Ray Charles "What I'd Say" at frat parties. Instead, they found amusement ...

Rodney Anonymous discography Having built up a sizeable cult with surprising mainstream exposure here and there, the Milkmen got as close as they ever would to high-profile success with Beelzebubba. The basic formula and approach of the band hadn't changed a lot, but they did get it all together to create another near-perfect single, "Punk Rock Girl." Sprightly and catchy, it mixes ...

The majority of the songs (and highlights) date from a May 1984 live-in-the-studio set ...

Rodney Anonymous songs Having created a near-perfect blend of whiny humor and punk catchiness on Big Lizard in My Backyard, on their follow-up the Milkmen ended up falling a bit short. It's not a drastic, disastrous fall-off by any means, but part of the problem is the album's lack ...
