Anyone else familiar with Hoodlum Empire? I have an EP of theirs from
ages ago (with the songs 'Get Drunk At Work,' 'Hey Fuck You Guys' and
other such masterpieces) and have been able to find nothing on them.
Ummm yeah. That's it. :P

moi.

A few years ago, they released an album entitled "Looooooking
Good!!" It's out of print. Also, the singer is missing and presumed
dead.

Quite a shame, considering that the album is hilarious and
well-made.

Cheers!

the band is from san Francisco. Great band, look their albumn. If
what that other guy says about the lead singer being dead, that really
sicks. They rock my world!!! I managed to get the albumn a few months
ago. It is out of print though.

I don't believe they're together anymore. Lead singer DJ Rob La Rock died a
couple years ago, though, I don't know the details. Anyway...they do have
atleast one cd called "Loookin' goood", cause that's the one I got. I even
think they put out another 7" after that. I'm not sure.
