Ok, I don't want to spark any kind of political debate
in here, but how much of the DK's was the doing of
East Bay Ray? I mean soundwise. Recently the DK's
won an (what I believe to be) unconstitutional lawsuit
against Jello Biafra based on a technicality and the
fact that practically everybody hates him (Jello) and
have seized all the old records and begun touring
again playing the old stuff with a new lead singer
that has to tape the lyrics to the songs to the stage
so he'll remember them.
Now, all opinions stated above aside, was the gnarly
surfpunk sound of the DK's the vision of Jello, Ray,
or other members of the band? I know that Jello was
responsible for the bulk of the lyrics, and music was
done (at least in the beginning) by the band playing
what Jello hummed by ear.
Now, back to letting the above opinions color my view
on the matter, I wouldn't think that any of the other
members contributed that much to the band creatively
because I think their actions have erased any
credibility they might've had. I would think we have
Jello to thank moreso than anyone else.
But that's just my opinion.
