{"title":"Screeching Weasel","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScreeching Weasel is a punk rock band that was formed in 1986 in Prospect Hts, Illinois. The original lineup consisted of vocalist and bassist Ben Weasel, guitarist Jughead, and drummer Steve Cheese. Over the years, the band experienced several changes in their rhythm section but the lineup of Weasel\/Jughead\/Vapid\/Panic is considered classic by most fans. Screeching Weasel has released numerous albums and gained a dedicated following with their energetic and raw sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSimilar to other punk rock bands like The Lillingtons, The Queers, and The Mr. T Experience, Screeching Weasel's music embodies the rebellious spirit of the genre. Their songs often tackle themes of alienation, frustration, and social commentary. Despite facing internal conflicts and lineup changes throughout their career, Screeching Weasel has managed to maintain their distinct sound and continue releasing new material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn recent years, Screeching Weasel faced controversy when founding member Jughead was excluded from the band's revival without prior notice or consultation. This led to a legal battle over control of the band's assets and name between Ben Weasel and Jughead. However, despite these challenges, Screeching Weasel remains an influential force in punk rock music.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"how-to-make-enemies-and-irritate-people","title":"How To Make Enemies And Irritate People","description":"\u003cp\u003e30th Anniversary remaster by Justin Perkins at Mystery Room Mastering.

Smart, incisive, rocking (and of course) danceable as hell, the 14- tracks produced and engineered by Mike Kennerty came at the right time for many fans stuck at home during the rise of Covid-19. After cancelling upcoming tour dates amid worldwide safety concerns, Weasel pushed the album's release forward with gusto. With revitalized swagger and knock-out guest vocal appearances by New Wave icon Josie Cotton and MxPx's Mike Herrera, the album provided more than fist-pumping hooks. For fans of the band, it scratched a massive itch that hadn't been tended to since 2011's punchy, powerful First World Manifesto. Passionately performed by Screeching Weasel's impressive current live lineup, Some Freaks of Atavism is both a pillar of punk triumph and a gut-punch to the monster the band so lovingly created. Really, would we expect anything less from these Midwest miscreants? Sure, the coming year is more uncertain than ever. But pop punk fans can be comforted by one unwavering promise: virtuoso Weasel will sleep when he's dead.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rum Bar","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50445838254411,"sku":"2046042","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Screeching_Weasel_-_Kill_The_Musicians_5fea745b_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727047266"},{"product_id":"some-freaks-of-atavism","title":"Some Freaks Of Atavism","description":"\u003cp\u003eScreeching Weasel has one of the most storied careers in the history of punk rock.
