Never Been Caught is the only full-length studio album by the American garage punk band the Mummies, released by Telstar Records in 1992. After their first attempt at recording an album, they judged the recordings too professional for their "budget rock" aesthetic and recorded Never Been Caught instead. Originally released only as an LP record, it exemplified their lo-fi, monaural sound and features several cover versions of songs from the 1950s and 1960s. The band broke up shortly before the album's release and, though they have reunited since for intermittent touring and performances, Never Been Caught remains their only officially-released studio album. In 2002 the Mummies allowed Telstar to re-release the album in compact disc format with five additional tracks, the first Mummies release (and only one other than their 2003 compilation album Death by Unga Bunga!!) to be issued on CD.
Tracks: A1 Your Ass (Is Next In Line) A2 Stronger Than Dirt A3 Little Miss Tee-N-T A4 Come On Up A5 Sooprize Package For Mr. Mineo A6 Rosie A7 Shot Down 1:58 A8 The Ballad Of Iron Eyes Cody 2:04 B1 Skinny Minnie 2:07 B2 She Lied 1:58 B3 Red Cobra #9 2:15 B4 The Frisko Freeze 1:18 B5 Justine 1:57 B6 Mariconda's A Friend Of Mine 2:08 B7 The Thing From Venus 1:58 B8 Shut Yer Mouth 1:57 B9 Jezabel 2:39
The Mummies were an American garage punk band formed in San Bruno, California, in 1988. Exhibiting a defiantly raw and lo-fi sound, dubbed "budget rock", the Mummies' rebellious attitude and distinctive performance costumes exerted a major influence on garage punk and garage rock revival acts later in the decade, as well as in the 1990s. Their recorded output was intentionally completed with poor, cheap equipment, including their first and only studio album Never Been Caught, which was released after the group's initial break-up. Since then, the Mummies have engaged in several positively-received reunion concerts and tours.
