Linus and the Smelly Bastards

About Me

Started Late in the Summer of '03. Linus began as a 5 piece hardcore punk band straight out of Coeur d'Alene, ID. 2 of the original members remain. Their songs are often about politics and religion though include humorous content at times. The members as of right now are JDD, Nick, Nate and Glen. JDD likes porn, guitars, porn on guitars, and most of all guitars in porn. Nick likes beer with small umbrellas and long golf cart rides on the beach. We're not sure what Nate and Glen like yet cuz they're new. We'll figure it out soon. Linus and the Smelly Bastards has one west coast tour under the belt and are hopeful for many more very soon. Keep posted and support the local scene!
