grogg history
About a century or two ago, the Pope decided that all the Groggs had to leave Rome. Naturally there was a big uproar from the Groggish community. So the Pope made a deal. He would have a religious debate with a member of the Groggish community. If the Grogg won, the Groggs could stay. If the Pope won, the Groggs would leave. The Groggs realized that they had no choice. They looked around for a champion who could defend their faith, but no one wanted to volunteer. It was too risky.

So they finally picked an old man named Barry, who spent his life sweeping up after people, to represent them. Being old and poor, he had less to lose, so he agreed. He asked only for one addition to the debate. Not being used to saying very much as he cleaned up around the settlement, he asked that neither side be allowed to talk. The pope agreed.

The day of the great debate came. Barry and the Pope sat opposite each other for a full minute before the Pope raised his hand and showed three fingers. Barry looked back at him and raised one finger.

The Pope waved his fingers in a circle around his head. Barry pointed to the ground where he sat. The Pope pulled out a wafer and a glass of wine. Barry pulled out an apple.

The Pope stood up and said, 'I give up. This man is too good. The Groggs can stay.'

An hour later, the cardinals were all around the Pope asking him what happened.

The Pope said: 'First I held up three fingers to represent the Trinity. He responded by holding up one finger to remind me that there was still one God common to both our religions. Then I waved my finger around me to show him, that God was all around us. He responded by pointing to the ground, showing that God was also right here with us. I pulled out the wine and the wafer to show that God absolves us from our sins. He pulled out an apple to remind me of original sin. He had an answer for everything. What could I do?'

Meanwhile, the Groggish community had crowded around Barry, amazed that this old, almost eeble-minded man had done what all their scholars had insisted was impossible!

'What happened?' they asked.

'Well,' said Barry, 'First he said to me that the Groggs had three days to get out of here. I told him that not one of us was leaving. Then he told me that this whole city would be cleared of Groggs. I let him know that we were staying right here.'

'And then?' asked a woman.

'I don't know,' said Barry. 'He took out his lunch and I took out mine.'

"That drunken duo, The Groggs, return once again with a new album, "The Groggs Put The Fun in Fundamentalism!" A madcap collection ov fractured moronic dance beats, untrue black metal, digital hardcore thrash blastbeats and enough blasphemy to even unite the Protestants and Catholics in a holy crusade to destroy them!"

reviews

"Mayhem and Burzum would be proud (in some weird way, if you gave them enough mushrooms)" - J. Schizoid

"...The album ranges from okay to shit (not THE shit, just shit). Most of the tracks are "novelty" songs (some will call them "speedbass-ish"). Sometimes they last under one minute and are practically just samples and noise ("Like A Virgin Surgeon"), sometimes it's Barney the Dinosaur on top of a breakbeat, sometimes it's a badly-looped, off-tempo dance beat with sped-up vocals. Ha ha. Laughter.

I just cannot picture someone listening to this CD on a regular basis. It's funny one or two times, then you throw it away and don't ever miss it. If The Groggs would stop trying to sound like Stunt Rock and instead concentrated on their harder, metal-type side, maybe I'd check them out."
- Guillaume Legar�

"that groggs album is really weird." - Heartworm
