- Founded in 1983, The Repellents ambushed the unsuspecting Indianapolis/Cincinnati music scene with its brand of fast, loud, straight-edged hardcore influenced primarily by the Ramones. The Indy scene had several great punk bands around (Zero Boys, Slammies, and others), but The Repellents stood apart by being older,snobbier and appearing more spaced out, and playing much sloppier than any of their counterparts.
Drummer Yukki and Bassist Jakki provided the raw horsepower to drive the monster sound. Lumpy's virtuoso performances were legendary. Dave, the singer ( who was mildly retarded and who suffered from attention deficit syndrome) would frequently fly into a rage for no apparent reason and dive onto patrons table , upsetting both the patrons and their drinks.
Down in hill-jack land, in Newport, Kentucky, The Jockey Club was the center of the Cincinnati underground music scene in those years, and The Repellents quickly found a home there. In the early years of the band, lack of money and drugs kept the quartet from traveling much. The Repellents found a way to play a short tour of Ohio.
The first line-up of The Repellents recorded and released some songs on the master tape, thanks to punk rock maverick Bill " tricksie" Levin. It was well received in the national punk press and fanzine network and even garnered some airplay on college radio stations throughout the United States and Europe. Locally, The Repellents gained notoriety for being the first band to make no apologies for habitually being too drunk to perform well. Legendary disk jockey Handsome Clem Carpenter regularly featured the the Repellents on his weekly punk show, Search and Destroy, on WAIF in Cincinnati.
As members changed and the musical interests of the members evolved, The Repellents moved away from the thrash sound of D.C. toward the metallic appeal of Motorhead. This direction was an appropriate one, as guitarist Lumpy had matured into an accomplished lead player. In their later days, singer Dave Repellent Jr., having completely overcome his initial shyness, put on an extraordinary show by leaping around the stage with a sweaty face while Lumpy displayed his virtuoso guitar work. The Bassist for this line up was the legendary Julie Huffaker ( She lives, Last four (5) digits,etc.) and Eric Stouder ( Ivan ) on drums.
The Repellents had a Reunion show on Aug. 8th at Radio Radio in Indy. It was truly a knock-your-socks off performance. Several people in the audience were stunned (stoned).
The second and third incarnations of The Repellents each produced studio recordings that for a variety of reasons were never released. Fortunately, the master tapes survived the intervening years and they have been digitally re-mastered, now sounding better than ever. These second two tapes, along with the original " Rocker Bob" EP, also digitally remastered, will all soon be available to the public. Stay tuned.

Rich Burton said… - Hey, Greg Horn gave me a digital copy the Defekts Live in Greg Hall's Parents Bedroom. Ah, to be sixteen again. Maybe we should make a page for the Defekts on the MFT site? The Defekts songs in your playlist are from the 1st Zounds Studio Session. I think I have the recordings from the 2nd Zounds Studio as well.
It's cool to see so many folks from back-in-the-day milling about the site. Now if only there was a Garcia's or Pizza Keg for some early afternoon video game sessions.

- Dano. It's been awhile. How's San Francisco? hey, check out Rabob's page (Ron Synovitz). Apparently he bought that old Tascam 4-track off you and recently remastered some Screaming Dogs stuff that was on one of the tapes.

Andy, yeah, I know what you're saying...the Lemonheads then instantly faded into multi-platinum obscurity. That's such a great perspective when most people have no idea the band even existed pre-1992.
If anyone bothering to read this hasn't heard t…
Ha! I knew it.
I'm not crazy about Michael Jackson or modern-day indie rock, but I will sing the SHIT out of some prime Manilow.
Burd, you nailed me.
I write the songs that make the whole wooooorld siiiing....
ahhhh Bullet Lavolta,their 1st 12" almost bordered on being the new Jerry`s Kids !!! Then they hit the UK with the Lemonheads & they both fell away.....those were the days lol
What gets me is people forget that punk/hardcore was NOT a private party…
Burd, I would never accuse you of being shy about speaking your mind. And I doubt anyone would have thought me anything but a raging snob from way back. And with the anti-Manilow snobbery of the post below, we continue to have plenty in common. FTR:…
John, it didn't seem like good natured to me when I went back and looked. It reeked of pretentious snobbery. Haughtiness. The funny thing is; I'd probably step up and say something if someone was doing it to you. Incidently, there are all sorts of t…
John I will indeed buy you a drink but you will first have to drive the van of screaming kids northward!
