The World/Inferno Friendship Society - Me V. Angry Mob (2005)

The World/Inferno Friendship Society (commonly referred to as "World Inferno" or "Inferno") is a cabaret punk band. Its style merges punk, klezmer, and jazz, while its collective membership features horns, piano, and guitar.

This musical collective has over 30 members, including former members of Dexis Midnight Runners. Usually one can expect to see about nine or ten members on-stage when they perform. The group is led by singer Jack Terricloth and guitarist Lucky Strano, who have been the most constant members throughout the group's history. Terricloth is known for his pointed commentary during shows: his monologues have touched on politics, his transformation from the "old school", and baiting of bouncers which usually end up with the band buying drinks for the whole staff.

1. Me V. Angry Mob
2. Cats Are Not Lucky Creatures
3. Leni Riefenstahl At The End Of Time
4. Brother Of The Mayor Of Bridgewater
