It's a great band. My favorite song is the 1989 "Always Saturday". Does anyone have a clean MP3 of "Kiss Of Fire" ?

To this day, I laugh my ass off every time I hear "Cattleprod" from their Jamboree album. Funniest song ever, nothing the Dead Milkmen ever did could touch it. I also love their song "Litany (Life Goes On)" off 2 X 4.
