Yuppie Pricks

The Yuppie Pricks are an American five-piece punk rock band from Austin, Texas, United States. They “deal in reverse psychology punk by ironically celebrating the materialist excesses of the upwardly mobile in songs like “Greed Is Good,” “Fraternity Days” and “Fuck You, I’m Rich,” which are tinged with old school UK punk, Black Flag and Dead Kennedys touches.”Alternately described as “raucous, straight-ahead punk” and “American Psycho hardcore with a wicked sense of humor” the Yuppie Pricks are frequently lauded for their live performances, where they’ve been known to wear John McEnroe-era tennis gear and denounce the ‘service industry scum’ who come to their shows.Director John Waters cited the Yuppie Pricks song “Coke Party” in a Variety magazine interview, as one of five songs that mean a lot to him.
