American Music Club(often abbreviated AMC) is a San Francisco-based band led by singer-songwriter Mark Eitzel. They've been recording and playing in SF clubs since the mid 1980's, showing a remarkable longevity for a band that has been far more critically acclaimed than financially successful. Although commonly lumped with other bands from the " slowcore" and " sadcore" movements, like the Red House Painters, AMC is better known for mastering the disparate strands of American music into a wholly unique synthesis all their own. Although born in California, frontman Mark Eitzel spent his formative years in Great Britain and Ohio before returning to the Bay Area in 1980. After a brief stint with the punk band he founded American Music Club in 1983 with guitarist Vudi, bassist , keyboardist Brad Johnson, and drummer .

American Music Club

Storm picks up valuable things
Places mirrors at my feet
A wardrobe filled with blood
And nasty lies to repeat
Well let me give you something
cause everythings for free
Yeah let me give you something
Before you take it from me
With a magic finger
Ill smooth the lines on your face
And no bad feelings linger
But your disgust and my disgrace
You wanna get excited
So Ill push you too far
You wanna get excited
Thats just too bad
Here they come
Theyve got shotguns and transparent skin
And they will stand around like rain
And they all want in
So come on in, youre welcome in
Storm picks up valuable things
Places mirrors at my feet
A wardrobe filled with blood
And nasty lies to repeat
You wanna get excited
So Ill push you too far
You wanna get excited
Thats just too bad
Here they come
Theyve got shotguns and transparent skin
And they will stand around like rain
And they all want in
So come on in, youre welcome in
Here they come
Tell me how you know my name
