HAMMERCOCKS COME FROM TEXAS, AND THEY ARE ANOTHER BAND INTO THE REAL THINGS THAT MATTERS IN LIFE: WILD PUNK ROCK, BOOZE, CHICKS, DOPE AND HAVING FUN. I GOT THEIR CD AND I WAS FLOORED BY IT, SO THAT I HAD TO GET IN TOUCH WITH THESE SICKOS AS SOON AS I COULD TO TALK ABOUT THEIR BAND... THIS INTERVIEW IS WHAT HAVE COME OUT THEIR BIG TEXAN MOUTHS, SO GO ON AND CHECK OUT FOR YOURSELF IF THEY AIN'T A NEW BIG THING TO KEEP ON THE SPOTLIGHT...
GD- A brief
band history for the readers unaware of the HAMMERCOCKS....
Formed in 93, new members in 99, first album released
2001., drunk from now on.
GD-Where does this masks
gimmick come from?? Are you wrestling fans or you used to bang yer heads listening
to THE MENTORS??
I've got a couple of Mentors albums, but we've
just always worn masks, so we keep wearing them. I think the real reason is...
so no one knows who we REALLY are. - jack Shit
We just wear masks 'cuz it's fun to get drunk and wear masks and play music.
Sometimes my mask is the only thing I'm left wearing after a set - Otto
Partz
We wear mask because we are all senators. - General Lee Drunk
Its just a reflection of who we are, I'm a red neck, been on the goat farm
for 14 years now, nothing like pissing off your back porch and blasting your
shotgun at shit, butt ass naked. - Billy-Ray Virus
GD- What is a hammercock??
Maybe snorting up cocaine from somebody's else dick??
Dude, what the fuck, maybe puttin' your face near
a guy's cock is cool in Italy, but in Texas you get strung up for that kinda
talk. I'm guessing you meant a chick snorting coke off our dicks, but the
italian to english translator may have malfunctioned - jack
Hell I dont know, but I aint touching no dicks, grabbed mine the other night
and it bit me - Billy
Noun: Name of the band that is written on many restroom walls. To hammer ones
own genitaria. - General
Well, that's the first time I've heard that one. And, might I add that I suspect
you're a closet homo just for thinking of it. We actually get a lot of shit
about our name. Apparently, some people think we are connected with a division
of Skinheads called the Hammerskins. The truth is the name means absolutely
nothing. We like the fact that it's ambiguous, offensive and frequently misunderstood.
- otto
GD- On the album you cover
an ANTiSEEN song... have you got any relations with the Confederacy of Scum??
I like most of the COS bands and have always liked
Antiseen since their first album, but we're not associated with the COS. -
Jack
Nope. Just a kick-ass band and a kick-ass song. - Otto
GD- Any bloody stuff
happened during your shows? Do you guys cut yourself open on stage?
Sometimes that happens, but it's not really a
part of our show, we just get out there, play hard and wing it, if the crowd
is into it, we're into it - jack
Nah. I'm not really into self-pain. At some shows though, the audience gets
kinda crazy. At our last show in Tulsa, Oklahoma, some dude broke his wrist
and had to go to the hospital. And, if you buy the CD, you can see the beginnings
of two separate fights in the video that's on it. Stick the CD in your computer
and click on 'Video'. - otto
I've cut one loose on stage before. It was pretty stinky. - general
Seen Jack and General bloody a few thimes on stage, saw a kid break his arm
in front of me once, tough critter - billy
GD-
I've been in your homeland Texas and now I want to know a few things from
you natives: why are you so damn proud of being Texans? what happens to the
man who mess with Texas?? I mean, I loved your country and I had some of the
best time of my life, but don't ya think it's too much??
It's all about kicking people's ass - jack
shit
Gunslingers,bank robbers, Billy the Kid, Jesse James, running free in the
past with whiskey and guns, now doesn't that sound beautiful, stake your claim
of land, live off of gods country, man that's living and hell yeah I'm proud
to be south, it's never enough, what's sucks is that the concrete jungle has
swallowed it all up, fuckin shame.....BillyRayVirus
Do you mean, "Are all men from Texas loud-mouth braggarts?" Nope…. Just us,
baby. Just us. - Otto Partz
GD-
You're going to release a split album with Germany's Faggot Kings, what can
you tell me about this one?
This is gonna be a great fuckin' release, basically
it's tunes that we were going to use for our 2nd full length album, but instead
we decided to release some vinyl with some great bands from around the world.
It's gonna be a 12" full color ass whippin' S.O.B. - jack
All I know is they're a cool band and they crank out some kick-ass tunes.
We've got everything done we're just putting it all together now and waiting
for the record label to get back from vacation. You can check out the bitchin'
artwork on our site in the 'News'
section. - Otto
GD-
Tell me something about the guy who takes care of your artworks and why you
decided to give the band a so cartoon and comic inspired image? I love the
way you seem like you've been kicked outta some post-nuclear-holocaust movie
from the '80s....
Well, that's simple. We don't have enough money
for good masks, so we have to just throw on whatever's lying around. Shane
Campos, our artist from DeathRayMedia,
just 'cartoonized' that. - Otto
We just like to have fun and give people something
more exiciting to look at than a plain ol' CD, and the only good thing that
happened in the eighties is 80's punk rock, damn right, everything else could
be blown to hell by a nuclear fuckin' bomb for all I care. - Jack
He rules,upmost respect for him.....BillyRayVirus
GD- What are/was your main influences
starting the band, and I'm not talking only musicwise: movies, books, porn,
wrestling... everything.
Damn…the Evil Dead trilogy, Ren and Stimpy, various
and constant porn, 1984 (the book), lots and lots of comics (especially Lobo),
the Dwarves, Lynyrd Skynyrd, LSD, Hustler, ANTiSEEN, violent video games,
UFC, Fist of the North Star, Frederick Nietzsche, Star Wars, the Twilight
Zone and an ocean of beer. Just to name a few. - Otto
Well I'm trying to save up for one of those real sex dolls,the way i figure,
your gonna spend about just as much on a real woman without the bitching,
costs is 6000.00 dollars man they look real, I'm gettin a boner thinking about
it. Then later I'd pimp them out, charging extra for any ripped vaginas or
anal, kinda like not rewinding a video tape, from the movie house.......BillyRayVirus
Well I dig good movies, old horror shit, mob movies and all kinds of other
shit. Like blowin' fuckers away on puter games, I dig fishin' like a S.O.B.
I'd fish every fuckin' day if I had time, alcohol, smokin', causin' trouble
when I was younger, gettin' together with friends and BBQin' listenin' to
good Rock 'N' Roll and tons of great bands. - Jack
GD- Are you proud of being a southern
american punk rock band?? What about differences between northern and southern
United States??
Fuck yeah I'm proud, fuck everyone else, the North
is for people who drink "pop", down here we drink fuckin' COKE man!!! (well
actually Dr. Pepper) - Jack
Hell yeah, the difference is they talk funny,...BillyRayVirus
Of course we're proud. All of the best rock and roll music comes from the
southern United States. Period. Everybody knows that. - Otto
GD- I read on your website you're gonna play this year's Confederacy of Scum
Supershow in New Orleans, are you happy about that? What about the whole CoS
according to you?
We are honored as fuck to be playing this great
event. The bands we listened to growing up will be playing at this show, that
kicks ass - jack shit
The COS contains the super heroes of punk rock. This organization was created
to begin a scene that they felt should be popular. What punk rock should be
about. They gave to us, what the record labels are too scared to do because
of sales, the real deal. I would go to the COS show even if I wasn't playing,
so to me this is a real treat. - General
Yeah, we're happy as a motherfucker. The Supershow is kind of like the 'Ozz-fest'
of southern scum-rock. We went last year to watch and it kicked major ass.
We can't wait to be the ass-kickers. - Otto Partz
GD-
Do you own rifles and do you guys go around Texas woods shooting animals or
maybe people? What about gun control by you?
Out where we practice is a great place to shoot,
kill things or just blast bottles and shit, fuck gun control. - Jack
Billy Ray Virus owns the most guns. He's got a few shotguns and a couple of
rifles and a few handguns. As for me, the only guns I need are sticking out
of my shoulders. See to it you don't pull the trigger. - Otto
I usually shoot the gun between my legs. Every now and them it may hit a person
or animal but its always from the wood - General
GD- Future plans?
Two hot chicks in a Jacuzzi, building a big ball
of shit, drinking beer from a toilet, sucking a cunt after a donkey fuck,
getting wasted and dieing! - General
Rock 'n' Roll 'til I die!! - Jack
Ultimate legendary super-rockers. I'll rock 'till I'm too old to pick up a
goddamn guitar and then some.. - Otto
GD-
Ok, that's it, tell whatever you want, say hi to your moms or just praise
the wonderful Garbage Dump....
Thanks to everyone who has supported us, we appreciate
it, to everyone else FUCK OFF! - Jack
Send me naked pictures of your women's asses!! - General
Remember kids, only Christians and Muslims go to Hell. Visit www.deism.com
for a dose of reality. - otto
