.
Like Most Of Biafra's Work Lard's Songs Are Angrily Political The War On Drugs Is A Particularly Common Theme But Often Have A Tinge Of Humour. Lard Has Not Officially Toured And Have Only Performed Live A Handful Of Times Mostly Around The San Francisco Area Where Jello Lives And Operates His Alternative Tentacles Record Label . The Band Played During Ministry's 1988 Tour And Throughout Their 1989-1990 Dates Jello Was A Touring Member Once In Chicago After Wrapping The Recording Of The Last Temptation Of Reid Once At The Conclusion Of A Ministry Concert In Los Angeles March 24 2003 And At The San Francisco September 26 2004 And Seattle September 29 2004 Dates Of Ministry's Evil Doer Tour. Because Its Key Members Are Active With Other Projects It Is Unlikely That The Band Will Tour. Jourgensen Stated In 2009 That Lard Would Make One Final Album Before Calling It A Day. However In 2010 Biafra Expressed Scepticism Over Whether This Would Actually Happen Saying "Me And Al Have Talked About It For Years But We've Never Been Able To Nail Down A Time To Try To Put It Together."

That Is Pure Unadulterated Industrial Metal. Jello Biafra Is A Great Front Man In Moments Such As These. He Can Tend To Be Annoying But Not Here. I Wish Lard Did More Songs Like This One.
