Before the world was introduced to MARILYN MANSON, before the world even knew what sweet dreams were made of, there was Ft. Lauderhell, THE SPOOKY KIDS, JACK OFF JILL and a club called Squeeze, which would later become a headquarters and home away from home for both bands. There, Manson became the great Oz to Jessicka\'s Dorothy. And Ft. Lauderdale their yellow brick road of sorts… A golden trail leading them out of humid hell and onto bigger and better things. Humid Teenage Mediocrity is a collections of recordings produced during that Golden Age. The now defunct JACK OFF JILL hit the South Florida scene in 1992 and was hailed by critics as a \"childrens puppet show meets the Exorcist." The band lasted eight years, with only Moulder and Fodera remaining through all its lineups. The Original (all-girl) line-up consisted of Jessicka: vocals/lyrics, Agent (Robin) Moulder: bass, Michelle In-Hell: guitar, and Tenni Ah-Cha-Cha: drums. JACK OFF JILL played with a relentless fuck-all attitude and sound that could rarely be duplicated by its predecessors. Releasing Children 5 And Up, Cannibal Songbook and Cockroach Waltz and touring with riot girl legends L7, BABES IN TOYLAND , 7 YEAR BITCH as well as Goth icons SWITCHBLADE SYMPHONY and fellow Floridian shock rockers MARILYN MANSON, JACK OFF JILL’s live show was one to be seen. They commanded the stage ruling it as their own private playpen complete with dolls-candy-blood and a plethora of toys for singer Jessicka to fashion into weapons in order to injure herself or her unsuspecting band mates. JACK OFF JILL took the stage taunting you to play their game and play it on their turf. This 25-track collection of songs from the Florida-based punk goth legends was produced by Marilyn Manson . The album includes 13 previously unreleased tracks and nine songs that went on to be re-recorded for the classic debut Sexless Demons And Scars. Manson also supplies liner notes with a JACK OFF JILL history and guitar parts to "Swollen". Essential for all JOJ and Marilyn Manson fans. Contains new artwork and 3 tracks not available on UK version.
