Sonic Dissidence

If evolution is outlawed, only outlaws will evolve (3 compact discs). By Jello Biafra. Alternative Tentacles records/AK Press, 1998. Former San Francisco mayoral candidate (and Dead Kennedys vocalist) Jello Biafra combines a writer's precision with words with an entertainer's delivery in these cogent rants culled from live performances. Sometimes hilarious, other times cautionary, they cover music censorship, the "war on drugs," capital punishment, the Cassini space mission, privatization of prisons, and much more. Jello reports on his visit to the Colorado headquarters of Focus on the Family, describing a cartoon from one of their publications. "ALA believes children should have access to all materials, no matter how violent or obscene," read the caption, with a graphic depicting such laughably bogus book titles as Naked tennis, Is sniffing glue for you?, My pal Manson, Pipe bombs illustrated, and Cannibalism: an alternative lifestyle. This engaging set of recordings is also available as a 3-cassette package for $14.98. (P.O. Box 419092, San Francisco, CA 94141-9092; $19.98; http://www.alternativetentacles.com).
