I have to admit, I'm here because of Gladstone.

@rockguitar2012 It's only this album though, the intention was to make a pastiche Beatles album, to demonstrate The Beatles weren't that great.

Of course it was more a tribute than anything else, it wasn't a "hey fuck you I'm better".

[edubasterra1]

yes yes yes

EVERYBODY ELSE IS WRONG seemed to be Lennon's attitude much of the time; but many of us loved him in spite of rolling our eyes at some of his proclaimations. Great tribute. Goo goo ga joob ga goo goo ga joob ga goob!

@walkerbrothersmusic More than that, Deface The Music was viciously torn apart by every critic that heard it because, especially at the tail end of 1980, trying to sound like the Beatles in anyway was considered sacrilege.

[walkerbrothersmusic]

the story goes...utopia was asked to write a song for the movie "roadie" and was told the song sounded too much like the beatles. so todd decided to make an entire album that sounded like them. but with the assasination of John Lennon a month after it came out it never got the exposure it surely should have.

@SgtRuttersClubBand I think 'Mole from the Ministry' was a tribute to this!

[princeminski47]

I'm here because of Gary Panter.

@SgtRuttersClubBand Lol, I actually thought this song was by the beatles when I first heard it x]

They're obviously very influeced by the beatles.
