The Candy Snatchers (Norfolk) - Color Me Blood Red, Live and More...



The Candy Snatchers were a punk band from Norfolk, VA. Their live shows had the reputation of being chaotic, where their ferocious brand of punk would be paired with both the singer and guitarist cutting their foreheads with broken glass, bleeding profusely while performing. ( See album cover ) Also, the bassist allowed members of the audience to light his bass on fire while playing it. I wish I saw this band live just so I could've glimpsed the insanity.

This release was on blood red vinyl (fitting) and was limited to 1,000 copies.

This band has an extraordinary amount of output so expect future posts of them.
