Physical Jerks

Making a mockery of talent.

About Me


Based mostly in Santa Cruz, CA, the members of this band are from SC and San Jose.
These four early twenty-somethings party like they already are rock stars and still live to tell tales about debauchery, not wanting to work, 10,000 Year Old evil tyrants, odd sorts, white trash, Downtown Santa Cruz and much, much more.
Blending thrashing guitars, pounding drums, funky bass-lines, carnival tunes, island rhythms, psychadelic piano, feedback, alcohol, non-sensical lyrics, running double bass pedals and any other rock oddity you can think of into a sound all its own.

My Blog

Holy Crap, I'm posting a Blog!

Yeah, it's been a while. All quiet on the Western Front, as the saying goes. We're working on actually practicing so that we can play a show near you! Don't know when that might actually happen, thou...

Porter Dining Hall Show

The start time will be 1 PM, doors at 12:30 or so. It'll last until 8 PM. We'd like it if the schedule was later and we had more time there, but the people at Porter aren't being very helpful and a...

Same Old, Same Old

Expect the newest version of it soon. My guitar track (Craig) has been changed, so it doesn't sound like fuzz anymore, plus..... LYRICS! Yes, there are now lyrics I'm happy with and they will...

It's a miracle!

We've fulfilled two-thirds of the promises set the other day. Info on the show (well, early info) and three new MP3s are up. "10,000 Year Old Man", "Ballad of White Trash", and a new version of "Sa...

Update time.

So, no new MP3s yet. I know I said they'd be there last week, but obviously they aren't up. We don't have them. We're working on the situation though. Also, there are some loose plans to for a show...

New MP3s

On Wednesday we'll be recording a few songs. But this time it'll be done on a computer with Pro Tools setup, so the quality will actually be good. There'll be a new version of "Same Old, Same Old" ...

The songs.

Ok, I've put up one called, "Same Old, Same Old." As I said before, the quality isn't the best because we recorded it with a video camera. Also, there aren't any lyrics because I had some, but ...

MP3 update

Because the Suckfest got shut down before we could play, there is no recording of us. So, at our next practice (either Monday or Wednesday) we will be recording so that we have some MP3s to put up ...

MP3s.

Hopefully, by Sunday there will be a few MP3s and possibly pictures from the Suckfest up. Don't know how great the quality will be, being that the MP3s will be of live recordings and recorded with ...
