(Clicka qua per la versione Italiana)
Family Fodder, the project of Alig "Fodder" Pearce
fronted by Dominique Levillain,
played comic party music that
evokes alternatively
Barnes & Barnes's musichall or
Mekons' anarchic punk-rock or
Gong's nonsensical prog-rock,
the Lemon Kittens's surreal pop,
on their first album Monkey Banana Kitchen (1980).
Two entertaining songs (Symbols, Monkey) and the
nutty disco-music of Savoir Faire and Organ Grinder
are not enough to justify a full-length though: a four-song EP would have
been more than adequante.
ScHiZoPhReNiA pArTy (1981) contains the nine-minute funk-dub-rock novelty
Dinosaur Sex.
All Styles (Jungle, 1983) was incredibly amateurish, bordering on
ridiculous.
Pearce reformed the band that continued recording all the way into the new
century:
Water Shed (Dark Beloved Cloud, 2000),
Classical Music (state51 Conspiracy, 2010),
Variety (state51 Conspiracy, 2013),
etc
