Like a Drug – They Eat Their Own/They Eat Their Own
Smash hit single from the greatest and most underrated hard rock band ever to be spewed from the bowels of la’s 1990-era club circuit. Released by Relativity Records in 1990 and powered by the outstanding lyrics and vocals of Laura B., this rare find is a prized jewel, indeed. With a huge base of die-hard loyal fans, Laura B. spends her more recent days as a Pittsburgh Vegan, pet lover and admirer of sophisticated, intelligent, attractive Moffmen. In her free time, she is as one would expect: fun, full of life and forever rocking… (c)2007 Laura B. All rights reserved. Published with express permission. Inquiries into further publication or the Laura B./TETO fan club are always welcome.

Heard this song on CD101 in Columbus, freshman year of college 1990. I can remember listening to the stereo with my college dorm mate when it came on. After the song played the dj announced the band name and stated they were giving away tickets for that night’s show at Chelsie’s ( local bar). We called, got the tickets and saw them that night. Great show.
Another band we caught in the same exact way was, School of Fish. The Song Three Strange Days came on the radio. Saw them that night.

Had no idea how much of a sex pot the girl was! I heard the song on WHFS 99.1 back in 1990 and it was a hit! Vocals.Harmonizing.The way the music was put together.I loved it all! Have’nt heard the song for the past 18 years. However the video from 2006 was very painful to watch because the guitarist and the drummer did a bunch of improv and you could’nt hear the bass at all. The vocals,harmonizing and bass were the foundation of the music and the guitarist and drummer were the seal on the deal.

I’ve had this CD since 1991 and it just got stolen (along with about 100 others) last year….Idiots in my neighborhood have no idea what they even stole? Thanks for posting this. They used to play this on WBRU 95.5 in Rhode Island in 1991. I think it was ranked as a top 10 song of the year in their countdown that year? Anyway, I consider this song top notch.

If you call, I would tell you to “get lost”?! Ha! Never heard it that was before LOL
TomFromJersey says:
I always loved this song. I’m the only person I know w/the CD = )
Question: There was a rumor that this was written about the same dude Concrete Blonde’s “Joey” is about and although she was a little coy, I once hear Laura B. in an interview kinda/sorta confrim that’s true.
I LOVE Johnette but Laura’s a lot better looking. Could the same guy have possibly gone out w/both of them all?
Just asking.
earthshakingfart says:
does anyone have the appearance they did on the uncle floyd show in 1990?

Oh, damn straight they don’t.

I picked this CD up at a used CD store in Monterey, CA when I was stationed at DLI in the Presidio. That was way back in ’92 and it’s still a fav album. Good to see Laura is still working. Love the attitude music.

I hate how everyone is always confusing Laura B with Fiona Apple. They don’t sound anything alike. WTF!!! LoL
