Known for their in your face lyrics, filled with sarcasm, irony, humor, masturbation and drugs. They never went on tour, and mostly played shows at 924 Gilman. They took the name Blatz after one of the cheapest Beer available in the US. Blatz came to life when Joey & Eggplant played a show as Blatz with John Santos, a high school drinking buddy of Eggplant.
