The Meatmen: ''We're the Meatmen...and You Still Suck!''

The Meatmen, brain-child of one man-child Tesco Vee, has existed off and on since 1979. Moving over 300,000 units since inception, the band was and is a vehicle for Vee's warped and sophomoric persona, as he lays waste (with tongue occasionally firmly planted in cheek) to organized religion, societal norms, and the French.

From humble punk rock beginnings in East Lansing, MI in 1979, The Meatmen rose to heavy-duty heights in the 80s and 90s before cashing in their dubloons in 1996. The Meatkrew’s legacy is rich in punk history, including members such as Ian MacKaye, Lyle Preslar, and Brian Baker. The Meatmen played shows with many of punk's essential bands, including Misfits, Minor Threat, Fear, Dead Kennedys, The Fix, Necros, Negative Approach, and many more.

Tesco's label Meat King Records has just reissued three of their best selling CDs: Rock 'N' Roll Juggernaut, We’re The Meatmen And You Still Suck! and Pope On A Rope; plans to re-pop War Of The Superbikes 2 are next. The Devil's In The Details Vol 1, a DVD chronicling the band's live legacy and Tesco's TV show will be out in May. All of this culminates with the band's first new album in 12 years, The Meatmen Cover The Earth. This will be released late 2008 and will feature USDA choice renditions of all of Tesco's favorite songs of the last 40 years!
