Music:

Introduction:
Played at the beginning of every concert since we began playing out in 2006.  The lyrics are modeled off the preamble of the United States Declaration of Independence and are a modern call for government reform.  Though the music has changed somewhat overtime, the words remain the same.

Destroy the Wall: 
In 2007, while republicans and democrats argued over how best to reform immigration, a bill came before congress suggesting a wall be built along the Mexico/USA border to deter Mexican citizens from entering our country.  While the idea was completely absurd, it still received support.  Since writing this song, the bill has failed, and many people have forgotten about the Mexican Wall.

The 2011 "Chests of Asbestos" Calendar is now available! FO' FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

In the spirit of the Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa (for the 1.6% of Americans who celebrate it, according to a 2004 survey), season of bringing joy, and in the spirit of the New Years eve season of drinking far too much, we have compiled pictures (and one flier) from past shows (except for that one on the beach... that was not a show) to create the "Chests of Asbestos" 2011 Calendar.
These pictures represent some of your favorite shirtless bass player moments over the last few years including the "I went to a UVA football game and got a W sunburned on my chest" picture for January, or the "It's the middle of March, and I'm almost entirely frozen, but I'm taking my shirt off for the fans!" picture for March.
These photographs will remind you of the good times you've shared with us over the years while you write down a reminder about that stupid meeting on April 27th to discuss profits and question marks, or the fact that your dead-beat cousin who hasn't talked to you in 15 years will be mooching off you and sleeping on your couch from June 23rd to the 30th.
So stay organized AND sexually aroused SIMULTANEOUSLY with the "Chests of Asbestos" 2011 Calendar!
