Gay for Johnny Depp have been described as spazzcore, hardcore, and metal. They are most well known for their vulgar, homoerotic lyrics
focused around Johnny Depp; for example on “Kill the Cool Kids,” Leopard sings “‘Cos I want my Johnny bleeding, fuck him in the ass!” The
vocals are most often delivered in a high-pitched scream reminiscent of bands such as The Blood Brothers. Musically, the band is recognizable
for a frantic, relentless style, with songs almost always lasting less than 3 minutes.
Formed from ex-members of post-hardcore bands Garrison and Instruction in 2004, Gay for Johnny Depp released their first recording effort,
Erotically Charged Dance Songs for the Desperate, on July 12, 2004. The 5-track EP was met with positive reviews which often compared Gay
for Johnny Depp to fellow hardcore bands The Blood Brothers and The Locust.
The band recorded their second EP, Blood: The Natural Lubricant (An Apocalyptic Adventure Beyond Sodom And Gomorrah), in the summer of
2005, and released it on September 19, 2005. This was supported by a small tour of the UK. The record gained Gay for Johnny Depp a lot of
fans, due to the unusual song titles as much as for the music itself. « hide |
