Artist: Mr. Epp and The Calculations Track: Intellectual Fool Album: Ridiculing The Apocalypse Label: Box Dog Records Year: 1996 (originally recorded in 1981)
Before Monkeywrench… before Mudhoney… before Green River… before, even, The Thown Ups... Mark Arm and Steve Turner pulled themselves up out of the primordeal ooze and formed Mr. Epp and The Calculations, “probably the worst band in the world”. 1981 - In the summer they all… went more than a little crazy… spending a lot more time in the basement on a makeshift stage… pretending to be a punk rock band… and breaking dumpsters worth of what would now be chic thrift store plates and glasses in a rage against the war machine or more likely just because they were young, stupid, destructive, and from the suburbs with nothing better to do and it felt good. -from Mr. Epp’s official bio
