About Violent Femmes






Violent Femmes were founded in 1980 by bassist/multi-instrumentalist Brian Ritchie and drummer Victor De Lorenzo. The name is a contradiction in terms, Violent being self-explanatory and Femmes being Milwaukee slang for wimp.
The rhythm section added high school singer/songwriter Gordon Gano in 1981. Gano and Ritchie had previously performed together at Ganos National Honor Society induction ceremony, where they caused a near riot. Gano was expelled from the Society and suspended from high school for this outrage.
One of the only stable aspects of the band is their aversion to rehearsal. Due to this they would take the music to the streets in an attempt to hone it and earn some spare change. It was on one of these occasions that they were spotted by the Pretenders. Chrissie Hynde and the gang were so amused by the Violent Femmes antics that they invited the band to open the show for them. The hometown Milwaukee audience received the Femmes with unanimous booing. However by the end of the set the Femmes had converted approximately 50% of the audience to their cause. Many years later Brian Ritchie encountered Hynde when the Femmes and Pretenders shared the bill at a radio concert. She said, Oh, youre still around.
The Femmes borrowed $10,000 from Victor De Lorenzos dad to record their legendary first album in 1982. Slash Records in Los Angeles was the only label to offer them a deal with the amazing advance of $0. The band accepted the deal and started on the predictable round of world tours, recording, more world tours, nervous breakdowns, band members quitting, solo albums, regrouping, more touring, divorces, more crackups, dropped from record deals, new deals, more touring, record company going bankrupt, lawsuits, etc. etc. etc. ad infinitum.
Fast forward to the present. Many things have changed. One thing that hasnt is the sound of the band. Their loose, improvisational, acoustic sound is timeless.

This so cool it reminds me of that one time tot covered hash pipe becuase of weezer this really good i normally don't like gnarls barkley covers like rock ish acoustic type thing but this is really amazing gnarls barkley is seriosuly one of the best bands of there times and to see another legend cover there stuff is so cool and its so well done to! thanks for uploading this this is awesome.
If EVERYBODY does or doesn't do something (fill in the 'something' with, Ha!, SOMETHING), is it still crazy? What if not everybody, but still MOST PEOPLE, do or don't do something (again, fill in the 'something' with ANY thing), is that majority crazy? Are the 'crazy', defining crazy? The opposite of crazy is NOT sane, it's apathy/indifference. (Which, to me, IS CRAZY). MOST of the world has become the latter. So, with that, aren't we ALL 'crazy', but in our own individual and, perhaps opposite, ways?
This sounds like it should be in a Quentin Tarantino film
Like better than the original
I always thought this was the original
Wow! Just wow!
