Quaker City Quiet Pills (LP)
The Dead Milkmen
Amoeba Review
Yes, you read that right: there's a new album from The Dead Milkmen, and just when the world needed it most. The material for Quaker City Quiet Pills was written between 2019-2022, with all the biting satire and goofy weirdness our era requires. "Grandpa's Not A Racist (He Just Voted For One)" is acerbic and smart, an over-the-top takedown of every person who has declared a relative isn't racist, just "old-fashioned." "Philadelphia Femdom" is a ridiculous (and ridiculously catchy) tale of a real political punisher: a dom operating in the highest echelons of power. Quaker City Quiet Pills will rile you up, but it'll also remind you sometimes when things are this bad, you just gotta laugh, and you gotta keep fighting.
