A new song called Pillagers by New Jersey rappers Sudden Death pokes fun at the pharmaceutical industry. The song spoofs the constant barrage of advertisements for new drugs and contains a mock ad for a fictional product called Liquiplox. The song quickly became a number one hit on the nationally syndicated Dr. Demento Show.

Title: Pillagers
Says Tom Rockwell, “In the ‘biting the hand that feeds me’ department I present a song poking fun at the pharmaceutical industry. Listen for lots of guest appearances by lots of different people. On this song we have The Great Luke Ski, Possible Oscar, Worm Quartet, Power Salad, and Mei-Ling Uliasz, the lovely wife of Thom Uliasz who did the music.”
