Detroit Grand Pubahs

Originally founded by Mack Goudy Jr. (Paris The Black FU) and Andy Toth (Dr. Toefinger) in Detroit back in 1998, but since their album on Pokerflat (April 2004) the Detroit Grand Pubahs consist of Paris, his alter egos and the Mysterious Mr O: butcher extraordinaire. Of course it’s the usual story about hardship, high court banning orders, laser-firing buttocks and straightjackets. Few lead s(w)ingers these days can have a crowd eating out of their hands whilst wearing a giant nappy, beard and turban but somehow Paris The Black Fu’s Terrorist Diaper chic is the new couture look for spring 3007. If techno is Kraftwerk jamming with George Clinton in an elevator then the Pubahs have got Spike Milligan on drums, Richard Pryor on bass and the Barry White on vocals.
