Sacramento 1988-1995. Pounded Clown! (often billed as PC!) was a Sacramento, CA area punk rock band active from the early 1990's until June 1995. Horns meet punk but stay away from ska and form a side show.

Sea Pigs - (1992) Freaktard 7''

 Very Small Records ‎– VSR 17

Members:
Dave Seapig, guitar, vocals
Mike Seapig, drums
Jay Onyskin, bass
Aaron "Cubby" Fatguy, bass (lasted about 4 months before Jay took over)
Billy, keyboards (back in the LA days)
Dave Seapig says a lot of neat stuff, here's what I remember, "Cubby quit to join Johnny Nitro & the Door Slammers. We got him from Screamin' Dave Wright & the Boll Weevils. I met Cubby at Melarkys while I was shooting off guns. We moved to Sacramento in 1987. Mike's wife Jackie fell in love with a heroin dealer and left him, and I transferred to the Sacramento Youth Authority as a guard. As "Silent Runner" we had laser shows and 12 minute songs called stuff like 'The Wizard'. Then Mike's dad died and we started playing punk."

Nuisance - (1991) The Rut 7''

 Very Small Records ‎– VSR 12

“It’s like being on top of the mountain, and you can reach out and touch the sun. Dusty trucks buzz on the county road down from you. And it’s like the most poignant moment that could ever be. Tell me with your lazy rock’n’roll just what it means, whisper in my ear".

Nuisance & Bitchcraft - (1992) Split 7''

 Kirbdog Records ‎– KD 004

Strawman - (1992) Politics On The Pavement 7''

  Allied Recordings ‎– Allied No. 12

STRAWMAN were a socialist inspired punk band from the Mission District of San Francisco, California, active from 1990 to 1995. Led by Tommy Strange (Tom Seiler) on rhythm guitar, a San Francisco transplant from Sandusky, Ohio, and Jimmy Broustis (from Chicago, former guitarist of X-tal) on lead guitar, Strawman hosted a variety of Bay Area drummers and bassists. Early recordings featured the rhythm section of the Bedlam Rovers, while later incarnations consisted of drummers Aaron Cometbus (from Crimpshrine, Pinhead Gunpowder et al.), Adam Pfahler (from Jawbreaker), Diane Glaub (from Ohio) and bassists Rich McClain and Chandan Narayan (from the east bay, currently a linguistics professor at the University of Toronto). Strawman played shows across California and the West Coast with the likes of fellow Mission-district acts J Church and Jawbreaker.

J Church - (1992) She Said She Wouldn't Sacrifice 7''

 Allied Recordings ‎– ALLIED No. 14

"Our first proper release. I think we had only played eight or nine shows when this came out. The last passage from Commodity was lifted from Society Of The Spectacle by Guy Debord. Aaron played drums. Cover photo was lifted from a book about the Nazi resistance in France and the back cover photo was of a cop killed in London in the '40s."

J Church - (1993) She Never Leaves The Neighborhood 7''

 Dead Beat Records ‎– DB 04

"We did a Peel session while in England. We had a DAT tape. We claim no responsibility as to what happened to that tape. I don't have it and I have no idea where it is. Good Judge Of Character - John Peel's pick as the "Yank sizzler destined to be a pop hit". Well, we all make mistakes... Really, a pop hit about prostitution? Everyone thinks that Priest is this really deep song. It's mostly about Tony's brother, who is a priest, in Saturday Night Fever."

J Church - (1995) Ivy League College 7''

From Lance's original J Church website: "Probably our best release. Our first proper recording with Reed on drums. Basically one song is a tirade against college students, one against people dissing every band I've ever been in and a cover of a Nick Lowe tune. Nifty cover is a spoof on Cheap Trick and the label itself is a take off on Stiff Records (one of my fave old labels)."
 
Although the words above date from 1995, that 'best release' comment has also appeared in much later interviews. Band You Love To Hate was inspired by touring with Beck, which Lance did as his guitarist around this time. The title track may have been inspired by the year that Lance lived in College Station, Texas (an experience which also led to another song, named after the town).
Marie Provost is a cover of a song by the British singer-songwriter Nick Lowe, a real-life story of a silent movie star who couldn't make the transition to the 'talkies' and who killed herself, locked in her apartment with her dogs...
Finally, the inner sleeve features the declaration: "No synthesizers ever!"
