Gravy Train - All The Sweet Stuff

Gravy Train!!!!’s new album ALL THE SWEET STUFF will inspire fans to pluck their eyebrows, dance like the underage maniacs that they are or fondly remember being, and sashay down the street channeling pure vanity and glamour a la Divine in John Waters' FEMALE TROUBLE…all while humming the unbelievably bizarre and catchy bubbleclub hits that are unleashed on the band's third full-length recording. The Train has been spreading their infectious brand of queer, sex, and food-friendly new wave since 2001, and their live shows have become legendary for their humor, brazen personality and reckless energy. Their fans are among the most devoted and die-hard around, dressing up in costumes for their shows and bum-rushing the stage at almost every gig. Chunx (vocals), Hunx (keys, guitar), Funx (keys, dancing), and Junx (nudity) have created a monster whose collective past in Catholic school and telemarketing has given way to an unstoppable force. Their song "Hella Nervous" destroyed Kill Rock Stars' server by being the most downloaded song in the history of the label, and they have only added more danceinspiring elements to their originally spare sound; they now use layered 60's organs, fuzz guitar, souped-up beats, and heavy bass to make the crowds go absolutely buck wild. With odes to frat parties, mutual masturbation, sex clubs, sweet treats, and of course, forgotten 90's pop culture, Gravy Train!!!!’s ever-expanding cult fanbase attracts anyone into the weird, pornographic, and hilarious. Teens won’t be disappointed by tunes as varied as “Wutcha Wutcha Wutcha Wutcha Wutcha Wutcha Doin Tonite?”, full of demented synth and Lenny Kravitz references, the Gary Glitter-inspired “Frat Party”, roller-disco workout jam “Solo J/O”, rowdy power-punk of “D.A.N.N.Y.”, and the two most radio-friendly songs the Train has ever ridden: “Club Situation” and “Strip 4 Me”, both produced by Bay Area disco/R&B legends Sugar and Gold. Lookout for cameos from JUNIOR SENIOR’s Jeppe, IMPERIAL TEEN’S Hey Willpower and Jonny Makeup of gay rap group VIP. This is the record that Gravy Train’s former label Kill Rock Stars thought was too controversial to release. With their new home on COCHON they are bound to start dance parties everywhere!!! See what happens when a hairdresser, an Africian Haitian dancer, a stand up comedian and mathematician all come together to make pop hits. And although there are already hundreds of YouTube videos starring teens gone wild doing their own dance routines to Gravy Train songs, this album will only produce more.
