The Poots formed in 2002 from the fecal matter of Anal Goobs from Pluto and the Dead Geezers. Guitarist Bill Ding started writing goofball punk rock tunes like a gopher in heat. Meanwhile, vocalist Ric Poot recruited a slew of couch potatoes and rejects to form the legendary Fart Club. The Poots then became a genital rock supergroup of gastric proportions before they could even record an album!
Then, one wretched day in 2003 their first album, "Fart in Your Cup,” was unleashed upon the public.
Fans clinged to the Poots like flies on shit. Literally. The hit 'Lettin' it Loose' was proclaimed a rock epic by Shichapants Magazine, the premier publication of the genital rock movement. Record offers were soaring in with an aggressive approach. The Poots were eventually picked up by Rectum Records and were signed for a 32 album contract. Their first effort with Rectum Records was a cover album entitled 'R.I.P.' They attacked a variety of classic punk rock tunes and added to them a new stinky twist never before heard by mortal man. Poots 3 soon followed to little acclaim, and Poots 4 entitled 'Rare Nugglets' was only released to a then shrinking Fart Club. Only with the release of Poots 5 would these goofballs reclaim some shred of their former demigod-like status.
Currently on hiatus, Rectum Records will be releasing "First Four Rears,” a retrospective of the Poots from 2002-2006 in the fall of ‘07. With 28 albums remaining under contract the Poots are kinda fucked. |
