MTV success duly came a-callin’, with Punk Rock Girl finding its way, deservedly, onto the channel’s rotation. The template was set for the rest of their career – infectious jangly punk tunes and impudent sideswipes ( “buy some Def Leppard T-shirts/don’t forget your Motley Crue T-shirt/you know all proceeds go to get their lead singer outta jail”) delivered in a sardonic Philly dialect.įour albums in to their career came their biggest success, 1988’s ‘Beelzebubba’, boasting a cover with a compact bulldozer type thing and lead singer Rodney Linderman’s oul fella standing proprietarily next to it. įormed in 1983 and hailing from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, The Dead Milkmen first came into the consciousness of, well a few people, via Bitchin’ Camaro from their debut ‘Big Lizard In My Backyard’. The album to be taken out of the Golden Vault for reappraisal this week is ‘Beelzebubba’ by The Dead Milkmen. We hope to get you reacquainted with old friends and create new favourites. You’ll know some like the back of your hand and nothing of others. Welcome to the latest edition of ‘Golden Vault’, where we delve into the annals of music to bring you a classic album.
