They first started in 1976, when the three original members attended Roosevelt High School together in Seattle, WA. Guitarist Sickie Wifebeater (aka Eric Carlson), bassist Heathen Scum (aka Steve Broy), and singer/drummer El Duce (aka Eldon Hoke) became fast friends and started to play a primitive version of heavy metal that was influenced by the punk ideals coming out of the underground at the time. They came up with the gimmick of wearing black executioner hoods in concert, and started writing songs with offensive lyrics dealing with sexual topics. They played the Northwest, developing their sound and crafting a public image that was more-than-a-little degenerate. The band decided to move to Los Angeles after playing their native Washington for a while, bringing their roadies with and sharing a one bedroom apartment in Hollywood. They played the Los Angeles music scene for three years, further crafting their image and getting much better publicity in the populated entertainment center

This IS really bad. That's the point of it. It's punk rock. Real punk rock doesn't require talent, it's for fun. The Mentors don't care if anyone likes them. They're having fun and if you're offended or put off by them, then they've done just what they were aiming to do. So if you have no sense of humor, this is not for you.
holy shit this band is terrible "males are superior, females are inferior" i cant believe these are supposed to be well written lyrics and im not saying that because they're sexist but come on the lyrics are "males are inferior, females are inferior" the lyricist is obviously no poet.

Just because I enjoy DRI doesn't mean I have to think what their vocalist thinks.
