Gaggle of Cocks
IN THE YEAR OF THE UNDERDOG THE SEEMINGLY IMPOSSIBLE KEEPS HAPPENING!
In 2007, after years of grinding it out in NYC, gaggle of cocks signed with Screaming Ferret Wreckords, a Manchester, New Hampshire-based indie label. Screaming Ferret has officially re-release American Trash in August '08, making it available worldwide for the first time.
Comprised of veteran musicians, GOC includes guitarist/vocalist Pat Harrington, bassist Freddy Villano and newest addition, drummer John Macaluso. Harrington played in SLUNT (Repossession Records) with former MTV VJ Abby Gennet. SLUNT toured nationally and internationally with Motorhead, Paul Stanley, Marilyn Manson and others. Villano is a veteran of such heavy-hitters as Quiet Riot and Widowmaker (featuring Dee Snider of Twisted Sister fame). Macaluso has been the backbone of numerous world-renown artists and bands, including Yngwie Malmsteen, Ark and TNT.
In addition to promoting the release of American Trash, gaggle of cocks recently teamed up with guitarist Chris Goercke (of Kelly Osbourne Shut Up fame) and began writing and recording material for a new record. Screaming Ferret is also planning to release the 5-song EP 5 Shots to the Vein later in '08. Recorded before American Trash, under the moniker Injekshun, 5 Shots to the Vein melds GOC's incendiary brand of ass-kicking hard rock with the hip hop lyrical attack of NY rap trio, SESH Tribe.

Long live American Trash!
In the year of the underdog the seemingly impossible keeps happening! The Giants beat the unbeaten Patriots for a Super Bowl title, a Beagle won the Westminster Dog Show and by the end of the year, the US will have elected either an African American, a female or a senior citizen for President…but the biggest shocker of 'em all?
gaggle of cocks has signed a record deal!
They said it couldn't be done, they said it would never happen, not with a name like gaggle of cocks…But Screaming Ferret Wreckords is proving ‘em wrong. GOC’s incendiary debut CD, American Trash will be officially released worldwide by Screaming Ferret on August 12th.
