[edit] BURNING ZEPPELIN!

As we all know, burning zeppelins are a danger to society, and therefore, it is made clear that we should stop all zeppelin productions. Except me. The theory of the Burning Zeppelin, created by Professor Von Fondlebottom, was one of massive influence. The theory is that whenever a zeppelin burns, God kills a kitten. After years of studying the only continuously Burning Zeppelin, me, he realized that a trail of dead kittens followed me, many with cross shaped bruises and impaled carcasses.

Are better than you

[edit] Formation and dissolution

Schoolyard enemies Pat Horton and Rafi Alam decided to start a band after mutual enemy Matt Wong formed band Brontide. After a couple of months discussing band names, album names, song names, guitar names and ways to insult Brontide and Johnny Lieu, they finally found a gig at Annandale Hotel.

After one hundred and fourty concerts and gigs, with big names supporting them such as Radiohead, Sonic Youth, Black Flag (they had a reuinion just for the chance to support Whore) and Dinosaur Jr, they finally decided to break up due to half yearlies and relationships. Also, Johnny Lieu had died of prostate cancer (though many fans believe it was suicide), which destroyed the bands basic artistic output.

[edit] Influences and influence

The band cites its main influence as sound vibration, as every musician in existence was influenced by Whore, who using a time machine was able to go back in time and be influential.

[edit] Reunion?

Pat Horton has expressed interest in having a reunion for the Grammy's to which they were invited and offered $2 million, though Rafi Alam has called this "selling out". However, Alam wishes to regroup for the charity concert for poor homeless indigenous people and other unfortunate kids (PHIPAOUK), though Horton has called this selling out, and a pointless waste of time.
