The band is known for its graphic album covers. In 1988, a police officer in Nepean, Ontario instigated a criminal investigation of the Dayglos after his daughter brought home a copy of Here Today, Guano Tomorrow . Obscenity charges were laid against the group’s record label, Fringe Product Inc. along with the label’s record store, Record Peddler. The DayGlo Abortions were not charged. Following a trial, a jury found that the band’s material was not obscene.
