10 Bands Who Should Play President Donald Trump's Inauguration
1. Jello Biafra And The Guantanamo School Of Medicine
Who They Are: You can always count on former Dead Kennedy’s frontman Jello Biafra to be outrageous, and after working with Melvins and Mojo Nixon, here he is with his own band, satirising the state of the world as he sees it. On their debut release, 2009’s The Audacity Of Hype, the singer puts the boot to everything from the dotcom bubble to Viagra, though his attitude is perhaps best summed up by the title of their 2013 follow-up album, White People And The Damage Done
Why They Should Play: In 2004, with Arnold Schwarzenegger serving his first term as Governor of California, Jello Biafra altered the lyrics of the Dead Kennedys song California Uber Alles to reflect the very real fear that the Austrian Oak might one day find his way into the White House.
With Trump about to move into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Biafra has no shortage of songs to describe life under a former reality TV star – Let’s Lynch The Landlord, Triumph Of The Swill, Nazi Punks F**k Off, Holiday In Cambodia etc. Failing that, he could always alter the lyrics of Kill The Poor to Build The Wall.
