Bio

The Candy Snatchers formed in 1992 (they got their name from an obscure, bizarre, and trashy 70′s horror flick). They were a nihilistic “free for all” with Larry screaming insults, cutting himself with bottles and jumping into the crowd. Willie would light his bass on fire and Matt would cut himself and spit on the crowd. All of this with music and lyrics that fueled the crowd, who would go crazy as well, until all that was left were broken bottles everywhere. Their live shows were so violent and messy CBGB’s actually banned the band. – Myspace
