Gang Banged with a Headache, and Live

Untitled

Gang Banged With a Headache, and Live is a recently unsurfaced "authorized bootleg" from math rock pioneers Don Caballero. Recorded November 6, 2003 at The Empty Bottle in Chicago, "Gang Banged" captures Don Cab's musicianship in live fashion.

Featuring the lineup of Gene Doyle, Jeff Ellsworth, Jason Jouver, Damon Che, the band performs material spanning from 1993's "For Respect" (Touch & Go) to songs that would end up on 2006's "World Class Listening Problem" (Relapse Records). While classics like "Fire Back About Your New Baby's Sex" and "Delivering The Groceries at 138 Beats Per Minute" are performed true to their recordings, the band also explores medley territory at times, weaving together songs like "Let's Face It Pal, You Didn't Need That Eye Surgery" and "You Haven't Lived Afro Pop" into the aptly named "Let's Face It Pal, You Haven't Lived Afro Pop".
