To hear Old Man Joe tell it, Eggplant Queens have been around as long as time itself...
Seems there was this family bible with an image of Eve lying in an eggplant patch. But that's neither here nor there.
We are here to talk about Rock 'n' Roll !!! As well as it's siblings; Sex and Drugs. What else do you need in life beside these simple ingredients? Picture if you will, a way get them all in one beautiful, delicious package. Now you can. If you don't care what the neighbors think this is the band for you. Crowds across the NY Metropolitan area have been going wild for Eggplant Queens. "Why", you ask? It's easy to understand: People want to Rock Out and have as much fun as possible on their night out and that's what they get when Eggplant Queens take the stage. If you are tired of being disappointed by bands that promise Rock 'n' Roll but deliver only a close approximation of it then you must check out Eggplant Queens.
These six guys weren't busy going to private school and attending coming out parties at The Plaza in their formative years. They were buying and selling drugs at 7-11 when they weren't busy doing bongs and listening to Zeppelin. Maybe that's why they don't know bands aren't supposed to have three singers. At least not ones that are as different from each other as Yo-Yo-Yolk, Sunnyside, and Huevos Rancheros. But how would you expect any one voice to be heard over the thunder of Eggpants and Scramberg as they pound away at the bass and drums. You would think it impossible to whip this unruly lot into a harmonious sound but perhaps Eggdrop's searing guitar is what keeps them all in line.
There is only one way to figure out what makes Eggplant Queens so satisfying. Don't be afraid to drink from the foaming purple goblet of Eggplant Queens. The smokey brew is made up of bits of Rolling Stones, a splash of Ramones, a dab of New York Dolls, a misting of Butthole Surfers, and God knows what else. What a deep hit of it will do to you is anyone's guess but it is guaranteed to do something.
You might wake up with Patty in your bed, you may have voices in your head, it's even possible your ass will hurt, but then again you just might realize you were missing something in your life before you found Eggplant Queens.
