Biography

A soul-influenced alternative/indie rock band from Cincinnati, Ohio, the Afghan Whigs were formed in 1986 by vocalist/guitarist [a=Greg Dulli], guitarist [a=Rick McCollum], bassist [a=John Curley] and drummer [a=Steve Earle (2)]. After releasing 6 LPs, a number of singles and EPs and a couple of drummers ([a=Paul Buchignani] and [a=Michael Horrigan]), the group disbanded in February of 2001, temporarily reforming (with Horrigan as drummer) in 2006 to record two new tracks for a best-of compilation. In December of 2011, the core group of Dulli, McCollum and Curley announced its reformation to play a number of 2012 concert and festival dates, augmented by touring members [a=Cully Symington], [a=David Rosser] and [a=Rick Nelson (3)].

LYRICS

Television's gone and i'm alone with lucifer
What a drag
Muthafucker lied to you
Muthafucker took me head
You're never alone with your jones
And all you can't forget
So roll on up the price is down
So come on come on come on come on.
Today the retard speaks to me and now i have it all

What a drag
Muthafucker lied to you
It could never get that bad just ask
So go on go on go on go on
Who you call retarded now?
I said who you call retarded now?
I see you standing proud
Come on down & swallow hard
