Following an extended hiatus, the Yuppie Pricks released their third full-length disc in 2008, Balls , on Chicken Ranch Records, an album where “the irony drips like bacon fat,” “to negate everything you ever thought about punk,” and which “recontextualizes classics from punk’s ever-growing classic history (Buzzcocks, Big Boys! etc.) and creates new oil guzzling and FOX news approved republican punk anthems.” Once again, the Yuppie Pricks dipped into their decidedly un-punk past to parody the Black Crowes’ infamous Amorica album, featuring their own male-enhanced take on the 1970s-era Hustler-inspired cover art, and landing them in the October 2008 issue of Blender magazine.
