If you ask me, the best hardcore punk bands are funny hardcore punk bands. Sure, being loud and angry and playing loud and fast is all well and good, but I find that after two or three songs my mind starts to wander. However, if the band can make me laugh as well as pump my fist, all the better. BBQ Chickens do just that, with short songs and lyrics that are usually kept to simply shouting the song title over and over. "Somebody Get Me A Doctor," "Muscle Muscle," "Kill Fashion Hippies" and "Stupid Magazines" should all be self explanatory, and believe me, they are.
