          They started off as a real life piss take of HM but
    some record producer herd,liked and produced (with better words) 
    a real good English rock band.
    
     The band has a real tallent but weird names like:-
    
                   flymo killer(or something)
                   strimmer deth
                   and any other lawnmowa names you can think of
    
    Does this enlighten you more

    	O.K. Mr. Naylor, get your facts straight.
    
    	Lawnmower Deth started out as a "serious" band, but they
    had one dissadvantage, they couldn't play!!  So they started to
    take the p*ss out of the music and learnt to play.  Over the last
    eighteen months they've done quite well, loadsa gigs across Blighty
    and a demo tape (Mowdeer) that's sold over five hundred copies.
    	Now they've a record deal and the first one will be a split
    L.P. with Metal Duck (nothing to do with me).  This is music
    described best as  KickGrass Rock'n'Roll.  The best I've heard
    from them are : Watch out grandma, here comes a Lawnmower; and
    Assassinate Geldoff.

    	Well, I would say that English metal bands are definitely
    ahead of the US when it comes to screwed up names.

271.8Ooh crikey it's ...KETJE::VLASIUMon Mar 25 1991 04:1613
    I listened this weekend their last album, named "Ooh crikey it's ...".
    I was curious because they received good critics in Metal Hammer. Well,
    it's some kind of comical thrash which proves enough fantasy and humor
    but when it comes to pure playing it's nothing more than flat thrash. I
    was amused from time to time but I was also quickly bored. On CD you
    have 32 tracks of which the first 25 are the album itself and the last
    7 are recorded live. The live part is also amusing but it shows also a
    quite weak performance. I have to listen more because maybe I was not
    in a good mood to appreciate it. I recommend it more as a curiosity
    (there are mixings with movie soundtracks also).

    PS. Could someone change the topic title to "Lawnmower Deth".
