Influences
The Humpers tear the shit out of "Up Yer Heart" when suddenly some dolt throws a glass and hits drummer Jimi Silveroli. Chaos ensues as Jimi and Billy Burks throw the guy out the second floor fire escape door, hence the alarm sound. Meanwhile, Larry May of the Candy Snatchers takes the mic and waxes poetically. Finally Jimi and Billy come back and the band storms through the MC5's "Rocket Reducer No. 62". Recorded at Fletcher's in Baltimore sometime in 1998.

Wake Up and Lose
The Humpers were created in 1989 when lead vocalist Scott “Deluxe” Drake and guitarist Jeff Fieldhouse, dismayed by the lack of high-energy rock and roll in the Southern California music scene, decided to take matters into their own hands. Within 3 years The Humpers had established themselves as the West Coast’s foremost purveyors of “punk and roll,” blowing minds and eardrums with their out-of-control stage show and roaring vinyl outbursts on such legendary underground labels as Sympathy for the Record Industry and Dionysus. In 1995 the group signed to Indie giant Epitaph Records and embarked on a 4-year campaign of touring and recording which cemented their reputation worldwide. In 1999, after 6 full-length albums and hundreds of wildly popular live performances across the U.S., Canada and Europe, The Humpers called it quits.... but, following a couple of highly successful reunion gigs, they have reformed this year for more shows and recording of new material. The amazing touring line-up of the 90’s is together again with Drake, Billy Burks, Mark “Anarchy” Lee, Jimi Silveroli and Mitch Cartwright all back in the fold. Accept no substitutes….The Humpers are back!*****Contact Devil Dolls Booking for booking info: www.devildollsbooking.com
