Underrated first-wave L.A. punk band with a revolving line-up of iconic names, and a dark bluesy vibe.
Flesh Eaters was the nominal group founded by post-punk poet Chris D. (Desjardins),
a singer renowned for his poor social skills (causing a revolving lineup which featured
Stan Ridgway, John Doe, and Dave Alvin, among a host of others) and a penchant
for obsessively morbid lyrical themes. The first Flesh Eaters full-length,
No Questions Asked, appeared in 1980 on Upsetter Records. Its follow-up,
A Minute to Pray, A Second to Die, fleshed out Chris D.'s rather unique vision
with a tight band including Alvin, Doe, and another X mainstay, DJ Bonebrake.
Though Desjardins rarely had backers as sympathetic and talented after that, h
e continued to record with 1982's Forever Came Today
and the following year's A Hard Road to Follow

The Flesh Eaters have been the outlet for vocalist, filmmaker, poet, and lyricist
Chris D. (Desjardins) for over 20 years. The band's official releases have been
sporadic at best, but never a letdown. With D. at the helm spewing out his
distinctively morbid lyrics, his revolving musical cast blasts out a mixture of
cowpunk, reggae, and, as is the case here, noisy garage punk
that embraces both the Seeds and the Germs...(AllMusic)
