Big Blackwas a rock music band active between 1982 and 1987. They were headed by singer, lyricist, guitarist, and co-songwriter Steve Albini. They found little mainstream success (and never really sought any), but the group's piledriver drum machines and brutal, slashing guitars were hugely influential, especially on industrial rock. Albini's snide, malevolent singing and provocative lyrics garnered much attention. They have been classified as noise rock, and were a formative influence on , but the band members have always described the band as a punk rockband and in the notes for Pigpile, a live recording of their final London performance, Albini explicitly describes Big Black as punk rock.

Hey little girl in U.S. dress
Come and give daddy kiss
To Dead Billy, U.S. soldier in green
Little lady, napalm butt
Come and give head to, to
Dead Billy make you boom boom boom
Dead Billy
Dead Billy make you happy
Dead Billy make you crawl
Dead Billy put your hand in his hole
Dead Billy show you what it's like to die
This is not a love song
And this is not a kiss
For Dead Billy
Dead Billy make you happy
Dead Billy make you crawl
Dead Billy put your hand in his hole
Dead Billy show you what it's like to die
This is not a love song
And this is not a kiss
For Dead Billy
No Viet
