Sounds Like
GOOD OLD 80'S PUNK SOUNDS THAT PENETRATE YOUR MIND, RATTLES YOUR SOUL AND BLOWS YOUR HAIR BACK!!!
The Band started with no name, a couple of originals and a couple covers....Robby, Gary, Gumby and Jay jammed a few practices before Robby(the old singer) moved with his wife and baby on the way to Washington. Over a tattoo in Jay's garage, Gary and Jay asked Mike D. if he would be interested in giving singing a try. The rest is history. The band started writting songs like "Hippy Exterminators" & "Fuck the Punx" and after hard deliberation decided to call the band DUCT TAPE HOSTAGE, one of at least 50 thought of out of the creative mind of Gary. The four played 8 to 10 shows during 2008. Some "issues" arose leading to asking Johnny and Chavez to replace Gumby and Jay. The four played another 8 to 10 shows before the most recent "issue" arose. Duct Tape Hostage just added Greg Berry on guitar replacing Gary Richter and are planning on continuing to play until we are good and sick of it. The contributions and memories of all that have been apart and will always be apart of this band are too many to count. We never know when it will end, I'm just glad I have been apart of it and I've got to live a life long dream of being in the band. MIKE D.

"THUG CITY" - MUSIC & LYRICS BY DUCT TAPE HOSTAGE - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
DRIVING DOWN THE STREET, ROLLED DOWN THE WINDOWS TO AVOID THE HEAT. WHAT IS THIS I SEE, HOMELESS PEOPLE LIKE TOSSED DEBRIS. THIS IS WHAT WE'VE BECOME, PORNSTAR DAUGHTERS AND ADDICTED SONS. THIS IS ALL AROUND ME, MASSES OF PEOPLE FAR FROM THE TREE. (CHORUS) THIS IS THUG CITY, THE PLACE THAT WE CALL HOME, THIS IS THUG CITY, WHERE GANGS AND HATE ARE GROWN. THIS IS THUG CITY, I HOPE YOU LIKED YOUR STAY. THIS IS THUG CITY, IT'LL ALL GO AWAY ON JUDGEMENT DAY....THAT DAY WILL COME LIKE A THIEF IN THE NIGHT(4X) SEE THE BROS AND THEIR HOES. SEE THE GANGSTERS AND THEIR FOES. HOOKERS SELLING THEIR VAGINAS, THE VATOS AND THEIR WHACKED OUT HYNAS(2X) (REPEAT CHORUS)
"ABDUCTION" - MUSIC & LYRICS BY DUCT TAPE HOSTAGE
(1st verse)
People, Take People.
Throw um in a trunk, chloroform and a roll of DUCT TAPE.
People, Bad People.
Take you for a ride, dark basement how’d you get inside.
(Chrous)
A Gun in your face, you can’t run away.
Kicking and screaming but now you’re their prey.
Bleeding all night, from the slash of the knife.
Is this the end of your life?
(2nd Verse)
People, Take People.
A “roofie” in your drink, wake up chained to a bathroom sink.
People, Bad people.
Taking children slaves, imagine all the empty graves.
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
Body found face down in the dirt.
Twisted and contorted in a bloody skirt.
Crying kids at home, she never came home from work.
Her name is still in lights on the Amber Alert.
(Repeat 1st Verse)
(Repeat Chorus)
