LAWNMOWER DETH / Return of the Fabulous Metal Bozo Clowns (1992)

Against all the odds, Lawnmower Deth made a second album of crossover thrash, hardcore + punk piss-takes, and genre parodies. The addition of guitarist Baron Kev Von Thresh Meister Silo Stench Chisel Marbels KP (Kevin Papworth of Acid Reign) brought some quality riffage to the usual comedy of errors. It'll appeal to a very small crowd of weirdos and freaks, but if you're one of them, then I raise my chipped beer glass to you. Let's go get drunk and ugly.

LAWNMOWER DETH / Billy (1993)

Lawnmower Deth were a comedy Thrash band from England. Despite setting out to parody the genre, they ended up releasing a hell of a good party album.
This third album, however, was a departure from the norm, with a Pop-punk sound that alienated 99% of the people that initially supported them. They broke up a few months after its release.
It has a few good tracks worth hearing, the highlight of which is a Squeeze cover.
