DESCRIPTION:
Hollywood's most infamous punk rock n roll band the Mau Maus ripping through "Warbaby", the first video from "Scorched Earth Policies: Then & Now" out now on Ratchet Blade Records. The video was directed by Glen Bennett and features newly declassified secret atomic bomb films, as well as the 1981 line up of the Mau Maus playing their most notorious song. "Scorched Earth Policies" features 6 songs produced by Doors' guitarist Robby Krieger in 1983 and 8 songs recorded by the band and producer Geza X in 2011, and you might not be able to tell difference in the sonic frenzy of the two sessions.

Taking the raw energy of Iggy and the Stooges and infusing an unhealthy dose of James Brown jive, the Mau Maus were forged at the original punk rock haven the Masque and sprang upon the emerging Hollywood scene in 1978.
