Yeah, there’s just nothing great about this song. The fact that it’s electronic doesn’t make it any better/worse than C&L. I gave this song a chance, but I don’t see what Al J. is so excited about. The lyrics are pretty bad, nothing I’d want to sing/chant along to. Long gone are the days of We Shall Cleanse The World, You Often Forget, and In The Neck. Why don’t they just spare us the anticipation, and give this new music a completely different identity (that goes for C&L as well). This is not RevCo in my eyes.
This was a fun parody of an industrial dance song. I liked it though not as much as some of the stuff off C&L. I think all the Gibby and Jello stuff is gold.
“Big Sexy Land” is my favorite Cocks album but even when I first heard “Son of a Bitch” I could tell those days were passing. Actually “Viagra Culture” is the closest thing the Cocks have put out to “BSL” IMO.
the new tune okay, not brilliant. I got off the RevCo train after BSQ. Linger and beyond is all ‘bleh’ to me. and for the record, covering Rod Steward is always shit.
Good shit, the lot. “Sergio” is probably my favorite RevCo track of all time. “Mr. Lucky,” “The Rockabye,” “Creep,” and “Dirt” get LOTS of play from me, man.
I’m personally quite digging this new RevCo sound.
Probably the funkiest-sounding thing with RevCo stamped on it since…Crackin’ Up.
I was surprised at how positive the crowd response was to I’m Not Gay one when they played it right before Ministry came on at the show last month.
To me, it actually sounds like a cross between some of the older Velvet Acid Christ material and one of the dancier cuts on Suicide’s (sadly overlooked) American Supreme. That is, somewhere in between generic industrial techno that’s trying to sound ominous and generic industrial techno that’s intentionally trying to sound cheesy).
Hmmmm, maybe Frankie convinced Al & co. that sounding gay, black and married wasn’t a bad thing after all?
i like it… i like the dance feel. but is it just me - or are these vocals just SCREAMING to be some Connelly squawking. i mean honestly… sounds to me like he’s even enunciating like chris. the “tired of being a homo” (chorus) part doesn’t fit - to me. Sounds like he’s about to go into a bush rant. But all in all – I like it.
Don’t tell anyone but Josh has always been a HUGE admirer of Chris and when he was asked to Join Revco. He had to sit down with someone and have a LOONNNNNGGGG fucking conversation about whether or not he should do it… Feeling guilty for replacing someone he considered a huge influence or even somewhat of an idol.
Josh, Clay & Sin have talent and are honest people.
They’re the only ones who have any of that left in the camp they’re involved with.
It’s different no doubt… but it’s what THEY love… and that’s it. Unfortunately somehow it has a refurbished band name stapled on it…
Why not just change the fucking name? What does the current Revco have to do with the old Revco? Nothing - absolutely nothing. One member, if that?? Al, from what he said, isn’t even involved directly in the project. So it’s a bunch of hired musicians with mediocre talent - this is the total opposite of the Revco I grew up with. It’s evident they’re piggybacking on a name that was established by some very talented and original artists - something they will never aspire to be.
Just change the name. No-one can replace the old Revolting Cocks so why even bother?

If you REALLY want to get into that… This is going to just get really ugly. Really fast.
THINK ABOUT WHY. The name would be kept… in this situation.
IF AL ISNT WRITING ANYTHING ANYMORE.
