THE BASTARD FAIRIES

PARENTAL WARNING! Unless you want your children asking
you embarrassing questions in public,
it would be wise to keep this music out of
hearing range for little ears!
Actually...  Stiff, upright, moral people shouldn't
listen to this either...  YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

I found these guys entirely by accident (oh, happy day!)... and with my sick, perverse preference for black humor and political/social commentary presented by smart-asses, I fell in love with them then and there.  My absolute favorite song of theirs is "We're All Going to Hell".  As irreverent and snotty as it is, it makes a very valid point- if each person's religion is the only right one, then everyone else but you on the planet is gonna burn in hell.  But even you are not worshipping the right way and will burn in hell according to some other person...  I.E., we're all screwed, suck it up and deal!

Enough with the philosophical religious commentary...  This group is funny, exuberant, and full-out in their opinions.  They are not for the idealogically squeamish, or for those who take absolutely *everything* seriously.  This isn't your usual mainstream fare, I guarantee you!  Their music has come out of the realization that there isn't anything out there that these talented artists (Robin Davey, guitarist, and Yellow Thunder Woman, lead vocals) enjoyed listening to...  So, like true visionaries, they made their own!  And the best part, they made it free for the rest of us!

While there is a more complete album copy of their debut Memento Mori available (link below), these wonderful people are dedicated to spreading the joy of their original twelve songs by continuing to offer them F-R-E-E on their website!  All the links are below, and I hope you all enjoy the sacred irreverence of their songs as much as I have.
