Bollock Brothers is an English punk/rock/synth pop band formed in London in 1979 by London promoter, DJ and manager Jock Mcdonald. Drawing from the most primal of electropunk, their blend of rock music forms the basis for idiosyncratic songs in which Mcdonald recounts his obsessions and passions with distinctive spoken word vocals. Often, these haunting lectures deal with postmodern death worship and Catholicism("Jesus Lived Six Years Longer Than Kurt Cobain"), horror movies ("Drac's Back"), apocalypse ("the four horseman") or celebrities or historical figures ( "Brigitte Bardot", "Henry the 8th". ) Besides their own compositions, the Bollock Brothers have become known for their extraordinary cover versions, among others of Sex Pistols, Led Zeppelin, Serge Gainsbourg, Aphrodite's Child, e.t.c.. Particularly outstanding is their cover of "Faith Healer" (Alex Harvey Band), which was released as a single due to its popularity. In the early days, the band attracted attention with bizarre publicity stunts: on the 1983 album, which covered the Sex Pistols album " Never mind the Bollocks" as an electro version, Michael Fagan, the man who became famous for invading the bedroom of the English Queen in 1982, also sang. For a short time in 1980, Jimmy Lydon, the brother of Johnny Rotten also performed as a singer.
