Some people mistakenly believe that the name of the Long Beach deathrock club night Release the Bats has something to do with Fallout Boy. In fact, the name comes from a song of that name by The Birthday Party. The Birthday Party is what Nick Cave's first band Boys Next Door became named in the late 70's. The Birthday Party consisted of Mick Harvey, Rowland S. Howard, Tracy Pew, and Phill Calvert, as well as Nick Cave. All went on to distinguished careers, but Nick Cave is by far the best known. Anyway, the deathrock club night Release the Bats got its name from The Birthday Party song and not from anything to do with Pete Wentz. Where The Birthday Party got its name has been the subject of many drunken debates between people wearing a lot of dark makeup.

The Birthday Party Release the Bats Lyrics
Whoo-ah bite
Whoo-ah bite
Release the bats. release the bats
Don’t tell me that it doesn’t hurt.
A hundred fluttering in your skirt
Don’t tell me that it doesn’t hurt
My baby is alright
She doesn’t mind a bit of dirt
She says horror vampire bat bite
She says horror vampire
How I wish those bats would bite
Whoo-ah
Bite, bite
Release the bats, release the bats
Pump them up and explode the things
Her legs are chafed by sticky wings
Sticky sticky little things
My baby is a cool machine
She moves to the pulse of her generator
Says damn that sex supreme.
She says damn that horror bat
Sex vampire, cool machine
Release the bats, release the bats
Release them
Baby is a cool machine
She moves to the pulse of her generator
Says damn that sex supreme.
She says, she says damn that horror bat
Sex horror sex bat sex sex horror sex vampire
Sex bat horror vampire sex
Cool machine
Horror bat bite
Cool machine bite
Sex vampire bite
