I believe that KD are an American (read: Calif) band. THey
have one album that I know of called Stand Tall??? Thy're not bad.
They have promo shots of them all on Harleys except the singer..hes
on a trike.. it's a riot. They also have 2 or 3 vids that MTV shows
occasionally on the HBB....

| This type of fun/show band seems to bring back memories of the
Alexander Harvey band.

| Don't know anything about Alexander Harvey, but I've seen the Killer
Dwarves on HBB a few times and enjoyed both the music and the videos.
I'd like to hear more of their stuff.

For Alexander Harvey read The Sensational Alex Harvey Band.
And if you ain't heard of him, then you really must have led a
sheltered life.

Nope Bri, KD's are from Canada. These guys are
damn funny!!! Ever seen the "how to make an
album" video? Too funny. The singer is a
maniac, I partied with them a couple of years ago
when they played Celebrations. I like how their
last names are all "Dwarf" on the album.
Funny, funny, funny band. Excellent music too.

Yup, Rob, you beat me to it. I got my copy of Kerrang today, within
it's pages was a review of the Killer Dwarfs. As you said they hail
from Canada. The reviewer also said the best bit was when Russ Dwarf
came onstage with a kiddies tricycle. -" A sight I shall treasure
for eternity".

The Killer Dwarfs have completed their latest lp - Dirty weapons.
It will be released in the US on Feb 26 and in the UK at the
beginning of March. They will tour the US clubs in March,
followed by an extensive UK tour around the summer.

I just heard "Dirty Weapons" on the HBB. For some reason
I thought the band was going to be much more thrash/speed
than it was.
Anyone have any comments on this latest release?? Would
I like it?? Is it worth picking up??
Tigga~~~

| I too saw them on HGB but I don't remember what they sounded like, all
I remember was that the President kept making me drink.

Killer Dwarfs - Method To The Madness gets released on June 16

396.13 | I knew this already though. 8) | COMET::FRISBYA | Bud...Don't harsh my gig | Thu Jun 04 1992 15:25 | 4 |
| Right on! Killer Dwarfs are cool....

I agree!

396.15 | That dude is SHORT! | COMET::FRISBYA | Bud...Don't harsh my gig | Thu Jun 04 1992 15:33 | 4 |
| Does anyone know how tall that singer is? What is he 4'3?

396.16 | | METALX::SWANSON | Fools smile as they kill | Thu Jun 04 1992 15:33 | 3 |
| Doesn't the lead singers "whiny" voice get on your nerves after a few
songs though?
|
396.17 | What is the METHOD? | COMET::FRISBYA | Bud...Don't harsh my gig | Thu Jun 04 1992 15:38 | 10 |
| Yea.....But that's what makes it great!! Ya gotta have an angle....8)
FWIW-The Killer Dwarfs are only pulling in about a hundred people in
their own home town. Man...That would SUCK for a label band.
Which leads me to say...."Just because ya get signed doesn't mean
you're going to be big....That's when the REAL work starts!"

396.18 | | VCSESU::COOK | Mystic Powers | Thu Jun 04 1992 15:43 | 2 |

I'm surprised they're still signed. It's been around 5 years hasn't it?
|
396.19 | 100 people? That's gotta suck... | COMET::FRISBYA | Reach for the Sky | Thu Jun 04 1992 15:50 | 5 |
| At least! I'm surprised too! Maybe they did get dropped and it
took them this long to get another deal?

396.20 | | VCSESU::COOK | Mystic Powers | Thu Jun 04 1992 15:54 | 3 |

That's possible. I don't remember what label they were on before.
My former SO had the promo and that was back in 1987!

396.21 | | MR4DEC::JWHITMAN | Why do I want more? | Thu Jun 04 1992 16:27 | 4 |

I saw them last time around here in Boston... They ROCKED! that singer
is a riot....

| I saw a video by those guys a long time ago (at least 3 years ago) and
it rooled! I almost bought their album at the time, but for some
reason never did.

396.24 | Killer video! | COMET::FRISBYA | Reach for the Sky | Thu Jun 04 1992 18:29 | 5 |

box? Talk about little.....

396.25 | | GOES11::G_HOUSE | Germ Killer, Plaque Slayer | Thu Jun 04 1992 18:31 | 3 |

the singer is definately a riot. if i recall, and this was many years
back, but i seem to remember him being about 5'3" or os.
|
396.28 | He's not as short as I thought. | COMET::FRISBYA | Reach for the Sky | Fri Jun 05 1992 11:22 | 4 |
| 5'3"? HA!HA! He could play B-Ball with Ronnie James!
