If you like your rock & roll rude, crude and socially unacceptable and have been disappointed in the last, oh, decade or so, you’ll be relieved by tonight’s Emo’s lineup. Led as always by “singer” Blag Dahlia and axe freak Hewhocannotbenamed, unrepentant social reprobates the Dwarves have been violating community standards since the mid-80s with such delicately titled messterpieces as Blood Guts & Pussy. The band hits the stage in support of The Dwarves Are Born Again (featuring naked babes and the same little person from BG&P on the cover), the band’s first LP in seven years. With titles like “Happy Birthday Suicide,” “I Masturbate Me” and, of course, “The Dwarves Are the Best Band Ever,” you know what to expect even if you’ve never heard the music. You have been warned.

Motörhead has released nineteen full-lengths, including last year’s Motörizer.
