Positive Drinking Attitude

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Positive Drinking Attitude (also known as PDA) is one of Dani Filth's earlier musical forays, formed in Hadleigh,Suffolk some years before the genesis of the almost infinitely more successful Cradle of Filth.[1]

[edit] Recorded Output

The band's sole release was a home-produced demo cassette titled Alcoholocaust In Your Liver (1990), a stark concept album documenting the dead-end lives of a group of alcohol-dependent teenagers in rural Suffolk. The surreal cabaret feel of standout track Innocent Cornflake is in marked contrast to the remainder of the album, which veers between morally ambivalent paens to alcoholism (PDA Theme), searing attacks on the role of the armed forces (Army Boys), the relevance of 80s car culture to the rural proletariat (Anusmobile) and an uncomfortable examination of anti-Semitic stereotypes vis-a-vis whose round it is next (title unknown).

Few copies survive, but this early attempt to push back the restrictive boundaries of three-chord beer metal is noteworthy in the light of Dani's later musical direction.
