    I don't do Instagram either, but that's ok I know what Danny Lilker and the Anthrax dudes look like these days. Funny thing with Danny being 6' 5" and the rest of them all being from 5' 6" to 5' 8" that's probably why they kicked him out all those years ago because he made the rest of them look like little people. They should've hung onto 5' 1" Danny Spitz though, having him in the band made the rest them appear almost normal sized.

    Scott Ian claimed for years that Neil fired Lilker for being too tall, and that they should never have given Neil so much power. But it's been rebutted for years and most suggest Scott had more of a hand in it that he wants to admit so as not to ruin whatever friendship he had with Lilker who wrote/co wrote most of their songs back then.

    Reminds me of the time I saw Sacred Reich at MDF and between songs Phil apologized to the crowd for their being fat, old, ugly and uncool now. Funny part is this was a good decade ago, and he's 54 now which means he was only early/mid 40's at the time, practically still a kid. Just learned that he and I share the same birthday, just eight years apart.

    There's a lot of fat, old and ugly men in metal now. There is also bean poles out there. Picture of Lilker back in Anthrax for a few shows. The dude is 59 and tower over his short arse band mates but he's not fat.

    I don't have instagram so I don't know if links work, but here's the link to a blabbermouth article with the instagram pic posted at the bottom.

    Absolutely nothing wrong with that Vic. I like lots of punk and grindcore bands who fuck around and don't take themselves too seriously. Although imo some bands can take the joke too far for my delicate sensibilities. I was just curious after seeing that Ramming Speed band photo. But like I said last night, turns out they were actually pretty good. Still haven't checked out that Lawnmowercore yet though. Their silly name is keeping me from clicking on it.

    Lawnmower Deth is just thrash/crossover. Probably not worlds different from all the other 80's crossover bands just they came from the UK where humour is a little different. They had silly names, sung about silly topics, did a cover of Kim Wilde's Kid's In America which was weird for a band growing up in the UK and no longer kids. They weren't particularly great at anything they did but they had fun. The reformed a few years back (even had Kim Wilde sing with them in 2015), but fat, balding, 40+ year olds  (now probably 50+) don't seem to have the same amount of fun.

    Lemme guess, another joke band like Lawnmower Meth? Let's find out!

     

    Lawnmower Deth were joke band in the same way DRI, MOD, or any of those guys were. They fucked around on stage they never took themselves seriously and they played to whoever would listen.
