Encyclopedia
Teri Yakimoto is the third album by the Huntington Beach, California
punk rock
band Guttermouth
, released in 1996 by Nitro Records
. It was their first album with bass
player Steve Rapp and continued the band's style of fast, abrasive punk rock with tongue-in-cheek humor and sarcastic lyrics. This time, however, the band experimented with more melody and pop
influence. By all accounts the recording process was plagued with problems, and at one point most of the recordings were scrapped and re-recorded with a new producer. A music video was filmed for the song “Whiskey” and the album became the band's only to reach the Billboard Heatseakers chart, reaching #33.
* "1-2-3-4" is a medley of 4 short songs: "Give Me a Gun," "Food for Thought," "Gar-bage (gar'bij), a Perfect Example of Uninteresting Poetry," and "Up Your Bum."
