Our debut album "The Scapegoat's Agony" turned 30 last November so we are giving away some free codes to celebrate this anniversary just a little bit longer🙂:

The album title "The Scapegoat's Agony" is an allusion to the play "Waiting for Godot" by Irish playwright and novelist Samuel Beckett and points towards the – for the most part – painful and excruciating emotional odyssey of the unnamed antihero.

Our musical influences range from Sex Pistols, Ramones, Hüsker Dü, Joy Division, The Cure, The Jesus and Mary Chain to Guns N' Roses, Therapy? and Bad Religion, with our songs frequently straddling the line between punk rock and alternative rock.

TLDR: who originally performed Laugh Your Troubles Away?

---

I found a copy of Party Time for Assholes, an album of covers by The Vindictives. 1994 2x10inch records.

I listened to it a lot in the 90s and still remember so many of the lyrics. Never thought about the songs they covered. It just sounded like more Vindictives, which is what i wanted.

I'm going through and looking at the original versions of the songs. No Rules, by Tiffany feels so slowed down after growing up with the Vindictives version.

Most of the original songs are indicated on Genius, but i can't find Laugh Your Troubles Away.

There might be others as i continue to go through it.

Thanks for any insights!

Edit: here are the 25 songs on a YouTube playlist.

I'm cracking up. It's so slow. But crazy how varried and how little they change to make it a Vindictives song.

Using Genius, I'm reading the lyrics for the original song while listening to the Vindictives version.

Here is Party Time for Assholes. It's one long video, but has time stamped songs in the description.

CALLING ALL MOSHERS!!! 🕺🤺
IT’S ABOUT TO GO TF DOWN…

We have been DYING to announce that we’ve been given the opportunity to open for the infamous Murder Junkies next month on Thursday August 6th at Morsbergers Tavern in Catonsville, MD alongside our good friends Sonic Creeps as well as Red Die Number Nine & Hamilton Outlaw.

Yes, you read that right. We are beyond honored and there truly are no words to describe how excited we are. If you’re reading this, we hope to see you there to share in this memory with us. We couldn’t have made it this far this fast without all of you. 🫶💯

Now, sappy shit aside, if you haven’t been to an Erked show yet—this is the one. Put in that time-off request, book that babysitter, sneak out of the house, lie to your parents, or do whatever it is you gotta do but just don’t miss it! I’m not going to spoil any surprises, but let’s just say GG will be looking up on us VERY proudly.

ERKED + THE MURDER JUNKIES =
THERE. WILL. BE. BLOOD. 😁🩸

The 28th of August we are changing our suits and we’ll play a Clash set at a Tribute To Rock festival.
What do you think? We’re having great fun!!

Hi there guys!

We’re currently a three-piece psychedelic/blues rock band with a sound influenced by artists like Jimi Hendrix, Queens of the Stone Age, The Velvet Underground, and Led Zeppelin, with subtle Afrobeat and funk undertones.

We’re primarily looking for a lead vocalist who can match our bold, high-energy style—someone in the vein of Cameron Winter or Ozzy Osbourne.

We’re also open to bringing on a rhythm guitarist to help fill out our sound and give the lead guitarist more creative freedom. If you can play and sing, that’s a huge bonus.

Cheers.
