Go Start Your Own Band


I've heard the sad news that Big Boys singer Randy "Biscuit" Turner has recently passed away.
My friend Richard turned me on to the Big Boys way back in high school, I liked their weird funky brand of punk rock, they were the oddballs of the 80's American punk scene and are still one of the most original hardcore/punk bands of all time.
After the Big Boys called it quits, Biscuit sang in Cargo Cult (also worth checking out) and pursued a career in art.

Here's a link to an article about him, written shortly before he passed away, from the Austin Chronicle.
