Have seen them? Well, get ready because HERE COME THE MUMMIES! Rumor has it that
these ancient blokes were unearthed in 1922, after being encased in dirt and bindings as a
punishment for messing around with the Pharaoh’s daughter. Since being exhumed, their
quest has been to wander the earth “seeking the ultimate riff”. The group, with a sometimes
rotating cast of characters--all equally entertaining--have been touring for years, collecting a
cult-following who travel the country to see their favorite undead.
Sound kitschy? Hell, yeah--and they’re proud of it! But, don’t let that fool you! These dead
dudes are a musical force to be reckoned with! The bandage-clad group’s lyrics, infused with
sexual innuendos of genius proportions, will leave you in stitches (pun intended). You can
download all of their songs on their website for free here: www.herecomethemummies.com/.
Check. Them. Out.
