Poor’s Man Ministry – RNR666 podcast full with classic Tit Wrench hits.

Interview with Bob about TIT WRENCH on RNR666.

The Man in the Plumbing Van

TIT WRENCH has been founded as an electro-industrial-hardcore-punk band in the early 90s in Chula Vista, California. It was the best for me. I loved it. Then electro noise gradually put hardcore-punk out from the music, and finally there was just noise. I did not understand why they did this. Their last album released in 1997, after they went to a long hiatus. But recently they have reformed, new album is on the way. It will be the best for me. I will love it again.

There was a great electro-hc-punk band in the 90s in San Diego, the Tit Wrench. And they are here again. Down into the drain!

Poor Man’s Ministry

 

I think I’m a very lucky man because I have knowledge of the electro-hardcore-punk Tit Wrench since the early 90s. I put them beside the Ministry, but the Tit Wrench is standing nearer my heart. They split up in the late 90s.

The reunite was great news, and the new songs… are amazing. So I have decided to do an interview. The story started in the late 80s in Chula Vista (near San Diego), California.

OK MFs! This is Tit Wrench Country

 

Bob: Tit Wrench started as a solo project for me as Neighborhood Watch was ending. I was asked to do a song for the Amity Records comp. „Beautiful Music for Beautiful People„. It took a few months of learning the Yamaha TX16W sampler and the Roland R8 drum machine and finally recorded the song „People Like that Should be Spayed”. I spent a lot of time with Mike Down from Amenity/Forced Down [hardcore bands – editor’s note] sampling guitar riffs. „Spayed” was recorded a few days before Christmas and mixed on Christmas Eve, 1989. Released in early 1990. Shortly thereafter „Go Back to Europe” and „Pit Bull with AIDS” was recorded and released as a 7″. „Go Back to Europe” was a comment on border relations as we are located just a few miles from Tijuana Mexico. Tim Gonzales from Amenity had some sampled guitar riffs for Pit Bull. Artist Michael Schnoor had some nice field recordings of light up the border idiots and my friend Rosebud did a few backup vocals. A few others had bit parts as well but the „band” was mainly me and Mike at that point.

The poor man’s Ministry: Tit Wrench

 

Tit Wrench is one of my old favourite bands. They are come from Chula Vista (near San Diego in California). It was founded sometime end of the 80s. They played amazing lo-fi electro hardcore punk and released some singles, maxis and three albums. Here is the Tit Wrench mega hit: Live Sucks, Do Me (1991), and here is the extended acid house version: LSD Me (1993). Later the band’s music turned into experimental electronic, then there was a long silence. But not long ago… Fanfares! The Tit Wrench has reunited and written some new songs! A new one and more.
