Description:
The Fucking Jacobs are an insane old school beer rock'n'roll band from Lexington, KY. The live shows are notoriously violent and usually very low-profile and underground to keep them from getting broken up. The music itself is a drunken mix of blues and metal influenced, funky pop-punk, reminiscent of porno music at times, but also stretching into the fast beats of the likes of The Connie Dungs and Screeching Weasel, only very heavy with vocals resembling something between G.G. Allin and Tom Waits, fast, dancy drum beats, a guitar line with a death metal tone but a pop-punk chord progression, and an ever funky, experimental bassline.
Band Members:
Jo Jacob fronts the band and used to be a street musician. He's now an unemployed alcoholic on the verge of insanity. Lunsford Jacob is the bass player, a record store clerk and stoner townie who only goes outside between the months of may and august unless there's a show to be played. Scott Jacob looks like your standard bald sleeves tatoo guy, but is actually the guitarist of this uniquely typical band, one of the most skilled in the state, and beats his pregnant wife on a daily bassist. Ron Jacob, the drummer, does too many pills to count but has trouble holding his beer. He is really damned fast though, and the only member to ever show up anywhere on time.
