Story-telling Comedian Jeff Simmermon Premieres 'Vomit Fist' at Metal Insider

Comedian Jeff Simmermon has created an oratory carnival on his upcoming debut album of comedic tales, And I Am Not Lying, due out June 9 via Comedy Dynamics. Topics on the album include his band with piano-playing chickens (Royal Quiet Deluxe), slaughtering kangaroos in the Australian outback, cancer, furious empathy on the New York subway, dinner with the Reverend Al Sharpton, dating following a surprise divorce and much more. This week, Metal Insider debuts "Vomit Fist", Simmermon's comedic telling of hosting the familial grindcore band at his UCB show in NYC.

Jeff discovers just what a lecture in hell might look like after a show with father/son grindcore trio Vomit Fist when the boys sneak back into the bar, in full gig makeup, before helping pops load their gear in the van. "Vomit Fist is hands-down the most thrilling act I've ever had on the show," says Simmermon. "It's really sweet to see them putting each other's corpse makeup on before the show, and such a fun, family vibe mixed with brutal thrashing."
