The Taxpayers originated in 2007 in Portland, Oregon. Originally a three-piece guitar/bass/drum combination, the band incorporates accordion, horns, piano, harmonica, and other instruments live and during recording sessions. Currently they perform live with a range from three to eight members.
They strongly support the DIY punk ethic, booking their own shows, printing their own merchandise, and releasing their own albums.
The Taxpayers have releases on Plan-It-X Records, Quote Unquote Records, Useless-State Records, and Asian Man Records.
"The Medicines," a song from their 2007 album Exhilarating News is featured as intro and interstitial music on Sawbones, a podcast about medical history hosted by Justin McElroy and Dr. Sydnee McElroy.
The Taxpayers are a punk rock band, taking influence from folk, country, jazz, swing, blues, hardcore punk. They have been credited for working with different styles. Experimenting with different forms of audience participation, they often incorporate magic tricks, stories, and more at live shows.

Free DL at: http://quoteunquoterecords.com/qur046.htm Been a long, long time; I have been playing things through in my mind. Prison equals narrative, but separation is damnation for our kind. You spent years chasing after a mess But easy livin' doesn't pay the rent. So put stakes in words and wastelands, leave the machinery for the rest. It was a smoke-filled room in Columbus in May Bottles on the ground in a desolate place. Baby, I must have missed you, but I can't remember feeling all that sad. I must have hit every bar in that town. I must have made a damn fool of myself. I woke up more than once on the sidewalk that year. But it's not crazy to gamble all those Louisiana Hot Sauce rainy nights. It's not crazy to get your shoes and just start walking until the sun c...

http://www.LanceScurv.com/ - Today I go deep in on the story of the Memphis man - Terry Turnage - who allegedly fathered more the 25 children and has literally paid nothing to to support them. He is said to run or either own a nightclub flashing lots of money and driving upscale vehicles but seems to have slipped between the cracks of accountability and continues on with a life that leaves the taxpayers once again to foot the bill. While it takes two irresponsible people to tango, today I'm focusing on the types of "females" who fall for the sweet words of a serial penis-slinger and why they always seem to get caught out there with another baby and no man in sight. There are some harsh realities existing in the Black community and too many of us are sticking our heads in the sand to ref...

In this interview Jimbo discusses the failings of the medical system with a doctor. He also discusses the financial burden on taxpayers from funding a medical system which has no interest in preventing disease. Jimbo proposes urine therapy as a solution to a lot of today's health and fiscal problems before giving a demonstration on urine therapy - while carefully not showing his bits. As a result of this interview, Jimbo will be soon facing court on three charges, two of them criminal. 1. OFFENSIVE BEHAVIOUR. Jimbo has never challenged the idea that what he's done is offensive to most people. This is because most people falsely think that urine is a toxic waste product. The law however states that offensive behaviour can be excused if there is a 'reasonable excuse'. Jimbo tendered this vid...

HCDE's Superintendent outlines his battle plan to fight the Harris County taxpayers and the State Legislature while inciting his fellow employees to join in the fight.But Mr. Colbert fails to mention that he, as well as all the other HCDE employees, are PUBLIC SERVANTS. Their job is to do what the Legislature and the local voters instruct them to do. Not to use public funds to advocate war on the taxpayers of Harris County.
