Label US

The Jesus Lizard is an influential band that originated in Texas and later moved to Chicago. Formed by vocalist David Yow and bassist David Wm. Sims, both of whom were previously members of the Austin-based band Scratch Acid. After Scratch Acid disbanded, Yow and Sims joined forces with guitarist Duane Denison (Cargo Cult) to create The Jesus Lizard.

With their unique blend of punk, noise rock, and post-hardcore, The Jesus Lizard quickly gained a reputation for their intense live performances and raw energy. Their music is characterized by Yow's distinctive vocals, Sims' powerful basslines, Denison's intricate guitar work, and a relentless rhythm section.

Throughout their career, The Jesus Lizard released several critically acclaimed albums such as "Goat," "Liar," and "Down." They have influenced numerous bands with their aggressive sound and uncompromising attitude. Despite disbanding in 1999, The Jesus Lizard remains an important figure in alternative rock history.

Reissues

with duane denison's stinging scalpel guitar, david yow's texas-inflected rants, and a punishing rhythm section, the jesus lizard was an animal without precedent outside of nick cave's similarly disruptive birthday party. their second album, 'goat', portrays a band growing comfortable with its power, featuring tightly wound songs that slam hard without resorting to hardcore histrionics. the production by big black's steve albini gives the rhythm section all the space it needs to wallop with a mallet of mutant punk-funk groove. on tracks like 'nub,' dennison's guitars cut through like a rusty chop-shop buzzsaw while yow seethes with madman intensity.
