For the record, who's answering the interview?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
PIGGY: The Motherfucker from the Pit. Disfigured pet of a fucked up Family. Also reconizing the names like NO! and STOP IT! ....Piggys real name is WHYTHEFUCKYOUCANTWEARANYCLOTHES? At least that is the name the Family uses when Piggy is around.
FATS: I'm the meat around the bones of this Family, so you can call me Fats. Some call me Herbert but that doesn't sound right when you are peeling someone's face off.
ATP
What is your band's name? How did you come up with
that name?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
PIGGY: LA-LA-LAADI-DI-DI-DOM....what? Well, to be honest, Piggy didn't have much of a choise. It was given by Uncle when Piggy was born...from some whore...Why? What the fuck is wrong with that?
FATS: If we are a family with a surname Bukowski, the name becomes very self explanatory.
ATP
So who's in the band and what instruments do you
each play?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
PIGGY: Yelling, kicking 'n screaming pig noices. Usually Piggy uses just fingers to tear out the wounds...and cunts.
FATS: I play with surgical instruments, such as a baseball bat and a pitchfork. The art of killing comes from the finesse, or more appropriately, the lack of. I shout at our "guests" a lot and Frank carries a pocket recorder so they mix it with some music, or what they call music.
ATP
How would you describe your sound. What makes you
unique?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
PIGGY: Well...kind of animalistic? Piggy thinks that the way the wierdo wearing a rotten pigs head while molesting and beating up a corpse/ going to be dead victims, or just the Flesh like We say in the Family, isn't unique... then Piggy is forced to lock you motherfuckers down in the Basement with Us. Let's see what happens then...
FATS: We mean what we say and we don't dress up. We just come as we are and don't care if you come at all. Selfishness is the only virtue that keeps us alive. We sound like someone had filled the toilet with bloody wet shit and stuffs the head of his most hated enemy into that shit while chainsawing them right up the ass. Horrible, crappy and brutally honest. In the most loving manner possible.
ATP
What bands have influenced each of you?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
PIGGY: Isn't there some vaccine against the influenza? One time Piggy get some fucking terrible infection from this old bandage. Now Piggy knows that when it smells, Piggy should not try to used as a sextoy. Unless Piggy keeps it's eyes closet. Then it's safe. Trust Piggy on this...
FATS: I get my influence from moonshine. I love driving under it.
ATP
How experienced are you on the stage, a virgin or
whore?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
PIGGY: Give a virgin in the Piggys gage. Piggy makes that little bastard a whore in no-time!
FATS: A frigid whore...ah, the sweet memories.
ATP
How would you describe your shows?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
FATS: Once we show up, the party dies.
ATP
Tell us about your favorite show and why?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
FATS: I like Touched By An Angel. That funny speaking redhead is completely desirable. I would wear her cunt in an instant. I demand her ass handed to me NOW!
ATP
Tell us about your worst show and why?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
FATS: One christmas we had Roman dressed up as the christmas tree. I think him standing there wearing only human fat wax candles and Irene from the local bar, Frank and Wiktor danced around the tree in a drunken stupor and accidentally spilled some booze on the sick twisted fuck. He lit up like christmas trees are probably supposed to anyway, and ran around the house yelling "Pink is my motherfucking favorite color! I want my trousers!" That was pretty fucking horrible show and Uncle demanded we went outside and kicked the flames down so we could take Roman back to the shed and rub him with some ballsack ointment. That christmas sucked ass. I like sucking ass.
ATP
Tell Us About Your Dream Show, who you'd like to
play with and where?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
FATS: I always dreamed me having a lovely dinner with Angelina Jolie tied upon the table and Gary Busey being the waiter. I believe we could have a nice little dinner with very intelligent small talk. The little midget from Twin Peaks was dancing on a piano and singing "I feel pretty" backwards. I roasted his ass and wore his face for the rest of the night. Wish I never woke up from that.
ATP
Do you have a street team and how can you join?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
FATS: Frank and Roman are patrolling the neighborhoods usually from Monday to Sunday in the evenings. They will bring you back to the farm and you will join us as part of our digestive system and festive clothing once we have set the mood appropriately and introduced you to Mimi. She does all the heavy cooking.
ATP
Do you have a record label and if not are you looking
for one?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
Blaupunk. And couple of cassettes also.
ATP
What are your plans for the future, in a year, 5
years?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
ATP
Finally, do have any words on what Arm The Pit means
to you?
BUKOWSKI FAMILY
FATS: Armpits have the best hair to apply on your mask to make authentic looking beards. On female faces. Armpits also smell like a sweaty cunt so they make me horny and feel dirty in a schoolboyish manner. And I don't have manners.
