Frankenstein Drag Queens From Planet 13

Frankenstein Drag Queens From Planet 13 formed in Los Angeles in 1980. Their name alone suggested something unusual, and their music followed through with a mix of punk, glam, and psychedelic elements that didn't fit neatly into any one category.

They released their self-titled debut album in 1981, followed by records like 'The Second Time Around' in 1982 and 'Viva Las Vegas' in 1984. Their song 'Back In Blacula' became one of their most recognizable tracks, though they also had material with titles like 'Your Mother Sucks Cocks In Hell' and '1976-6-6' that reflected their provocative approach.

The band's live shows were known for theatrical costumes and makeup, which complemented their unconventional sound. While they developed a following in underground circles, their music remained more of a cult interest than mainstream fare.
