So far I've heard 2 songs by this band from B-movies. What's the story on this band? Does anyone know a site of there's or what B-movie's there songs have been in?

So far I Know Killer Klowns and Toxic Advenger. Anyone know any others?

mr. henry

i had a cassette album of their's in the mid-to late 80s. it had killer klowns on it.

they were marginally lumped into the punk category by record stores...although they obviously weren't hardcore...more like the dead milkmen or mojo nixon.

i don't know of any other movies that use their songs...but i have a vhs called horror rock that puts horror movie clips to music...the dickies are on there with a song called "booby trap."

they were on the Enigma label. i'm pretty sure you could find  a fanpage on yahoo or via a google search. for albums to buy try half.com or ebay...

good luck,
