The original vehicle for social and political critic <a href="spotify:artist:4vCYwGCNg2XUsdi9IVMzwo">Michael Franti</a> (later of the <a href="spotify:artist:6RqyNFZlXUHKZHEoAws5Jd">Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:1mHuZMOP8FG5ip4yAb1vrB">Spearhead</a>), the Beatnigs used elements of industrial music and punk on their lone album, a 1988 self-titled effort for Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles label. After its release and a remix of the single "Television" by <a href="spotify:artist:4vZIz0gG5DD3Qj9MB6kclW">Adrian Sherwood</a>, the group broke up; <a href="spotify:artist:4vCYwGCNg2XUsdi9IVMzwo">Franti</a>, however, returned to music three years later with his <a href="spotify:artist:6RqyNFZlXUHKZHEoAws5Jd">Disposable Heroes</a> project, an act in much the same vein as the Beatnigs but with more ties to rap. ~ John Bush, Rovi
