They are known for their nuanced punk repertoire, and controversial lyrics. Since the hardcore punk and scum punk sounds of their early days, they have recently developed more of a pop-punk influence. Their shows have been notable for some aggressive fights on stage (with the audience and even a cop), and because "He Who Cannot Be Named" performs either in nothing but a jockstrap or totally nude, and makes no attempt to hide behind his guitar.
Their album covers are unusual - naked women, and a naked dwarf sodomizing a rabbit covered in blood, for their 1990 album "Blood Guts & Pussy" - followed up a decade later, with a similar theme, this time covered in soap suds, for "Come Clean". The band was sacked from their previous label, Sub Pop over pranks such as the long-lasting hoax contending that guitarist "He Who Cannot Be Named" had died. They have recorded on several labels and recently joined Sympathy for the Record Industry. They also have a track listed on the Punk you compilation album.
The original members of the Dwarves began making music together in the mid 80's as teenagers in the Chicago garage rock outfit Suburban Nightmare. The group's original Paisley underground sound was evident on the band's 1986 Voxx Records debut Horror Stories, an album which, like many of its Paisley underground contemporaries, contained a number of mid 60's Pebbles-inspired garage rock covers, including The Avengers' "Be a Cave man", and Shag's "Stop and Listen".

Jack off for lunch
I'd like you better if you had a fuckin cunt
Let's fuck- let's fuck
I'm made of rubber
You're made of glue
I wanna stick my fucking cock inside of you
Let's Fuck
I am the best fuckin fuck in the whole USA
I can fuck you to death, I can fuck you to stay(?)
I am the best fucking fuck in the whole fuckin world
Dog eat dog, boy eat girl
I'm the duke of fuckin earl
Let's fuck
Old enough to bleed, old enough to breed
Old enough to pee then she's old enough for me
Let's fuck
The Dwarves' song "Let's Fuck" is a highly controversial and sexually explicit song that has received both praise and criticism. The lyrics of the song explicitly detail the sexual desires of the singer, including his preferences for breakfast and lunch, the importance of a vagina, and his self-proclaimed ability to "fuck you to death." The song also includes a highly misogynistic line, "Old enough to bleed, old enough to breed, old enough to pee then she's old enough for me" which has been highly criticized for promoting statutory rape.
The song has been interpreted in many different ways, with some people seeing it as a crude expression of sexual desire while others see it as a reflection of the objectification and degradation of women. Some have argued that the song is a commentary on toxic masculinity and the ways in which men are taught to see women as objects to be used for their own pleasure. Others argue that the song is simply a rebellious expression of sexuality and a rejection of societal norms and values.
Despite the controversy surrounding the song, it has become a cult classic and is still played at punk shows and other underground events. Many fans of the band appreciate the shock value and raw energy of the song, as well as the band's uncompromising commitment to pushing the boundaries of acceptable discourse.
