shamelessly exploiting tragic events, human foibles, and the absurd
through loud music and other media for fun and profit
the Shrunken Headbangers, shock-and-roll band:
(L-R) Ratko Serin (guitar), Caligula (keyboards, vocals),
Akira the Death Merchant (viola,bass,mandolin), The Chicken Wing (drums)
The Shrunken Headbangers' BAND HISTORY page is long but highly
recommended. It includes dozens of photo links not found on the PHOTOS
page and explains how this outrageous band got more than its 15 minutes
of fame. The DISCOGRAPHY page has the band's complete,
unexpurgated lyrics, including the stuff they wouldn't play on WHFS.
