The Humpers is a garage punk band formed in 1989 led by Scott "Deluxe" Drake, formerly of The Suicide Kings. Despite being based out of Long Beach, California, they first won acclaim in Yugoslavia, where their debut EP, "My Machine", was released. They released two full-lengths for Sympathy for the Record Industry and three for Caroline/Epitaph.
"Positively Sick on 4th Street" gloriously hearkens back to the classic days of the late-'70s New York CBGB's punk scene of Ramones, Heartbreakers, Dead Boys fame. Unlike California pop-punk predecessors, the Descendents, and contemporaries, Green Day and the Muffs, the Humpers give us a powerful dose of back alley grime surrounded by tight Chuck Berry guitar riffs and jerking rhythmic progressions.

GREATTTT !!!
This is THEE BEST Humpers line up with both Jeff and Scott. My good pal Zdenko Franjic released all early Humpers stuff on his "Listen Loudest Records" in early 90's while they were still pretty unknown band. The fact is that Humpers still have, sort of an underground cult status here in the ex-yugoslavian countries and serbian label "basement blues records" just recently released a humpers tribute album ""POSITIVELY SICK ON THE STREETS OF SERBIA".
Thanx for this share bro !!!

I love the Humpers, and this is my favorite lp/cd by them. Amazing energy, and great songs. Any one interested in great rock n roll should grab this, and buy Humpers lps,45s and cds.
