The Beginner's Guide To Whipping Boy
Whipping Boy formed in Dublin in 1988, the band comprising Fearghal McKee (vocals), Paul Page (guitar), Myles McDonnell (bass, vocals), and Colm Hassett (drums).[1] They initially performed cover versions of songs by The Velvet Underground and The Fall, and went by the name Lolita and the Whipping Boy, shortening their name when their female guitarist left.[2] After a couple of EP's on the Cheree label, they released their low-key debut album, Submarine in 1992 on Liquid Records . Their live performances raised their profile, with McKee known to cut himself with broken glass on stage.[2] The album was critically acclaimed though commercially unsuccessful, and led to a deal with Columbia Records, who issued the band's second album, Heartworm, in 1995, along with three minor hit singles.[1] Heartworm received much critical accalaim, with Allmusic calling it "an earth-shatteringly powerful experience".[3] The group split up in 1998 after being dropped by Columbia, leaving a third album unreleased. The album was eventually released in 2000 on their own Low Rent label.
