Biography:
Having founded seminal Memphis punk outfit Reatards at the tender age of sixteen, Jay Reatard (May 1, 1980 - January 13, 2010) was a seasoned veteran of the garage-punk scene. In the '90s Reatards turned the Memphis underground rock scene upside down with a legendary over-the-top live shows.
Never content to stick to one genre, one project or one band, Jay also co-led the synth-punk Lost Sounds with Alicja Trout, played drums for The Final Solutions

Sitting with no sound
Fucked in terms of what to do
Daydreaming of a better place
Frightened look upon my face

'Till I rose the only one
You faked it all the way
You faked it all the way
You faked it all the way
You faked it all the way
You!
