The Black Lips
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChuYpoajar0]The Black Lips - Modern Art[/ame]
Black Lips are a "Flower Punk" band from Atlanta, Georgia.
The band formed in 1999 in Dunwoody, Georgia after guitarist Cole Alexander and bassist Jared Swilley left the Renegades, and guitarist Ben Eberbaugh left the Reruns.[2] Alexander and Swilley were known for their crude antics both during shows and at school. They were kicked out of school during their senior year after the Columbine Massacre in 1999 because they were regarded as a "subculture danger."[3] Drummer Joe Bradley, who had been studying in college after graduating high school early, joined a few months later.[4] They released their first 7-inch in 2002 on their own record label, Die Slaughterhaus. Just days before a tour was to begin in December 2002, guitarist Ben Eberbaugh was driving a car that was struck by a drunk driver going the wrong way while he was stopped at a toll booth. He was killed but the band carried on, believing that Eberbaugh would want them to continue
