The Young Snakes were an American rock band formed in Boston in the early 1980s.[1][2]
The lead singer and bassist, Aimee Mann, formed the group after she dropped out of Berklee College of Music along with the guitarist and singer Doug Vargas and the drummer Dave Bass Brown. Brown left the band in the fall of 1981 to help form the Boston hardcore punk band Negative FX, and was replaced by the former D Club drummer Mike Evans.
After releasing the song "Brains and Eggs" on the Modern Method compilation A Wicked Good Time, the band released a five-song EP, 1982’s Bark Along with The Young Snakes, on Ambiguous Records. The compilation album Aimee Mann & The Young Snakes, released in 2004, included "Brains and Eggs" and a radio performance, but not the Bark Along tracks.
Mann described the band as "a little punk noise-art outfit", noting that the group’s "break every rule" ethos became a rule in itself, and that the decision to depart and form her own band, 'Til Tuesday, was a rebellion against the Young Snakes’ lack of interest in "sweetness and melody"; Mann was developing herself as a songwriter and wanted more freedom to write and control over her music.[citation needed][3]
