A musical celebration of human stupidity, firmly set at the intersection of OMG and WTF, with lyrics generally based on actual events. #music #tucson #tucsonlivemusic
Captain Chemical WTF picture of the week: a still from our next song video. All we can tell you at this point in time is that the song is called "Chem-Pop" - you'll just have to guess why we're dancing on flames. You'll discover the horrific truth soon enough...

Captain Chemical WTF picture of the week: a still from our next song video. We leave it to you to speculate on what we're doing, and why. You'll discover the horrific truth soon enough...

Never imagined this was possible for a band that celebrates human stupidity, insists on playing in multiple genres, and purveys utterly ridiculous lyrics. Yet here we are. THANK YOU to everyone who has listened to our madness online, bought our CDs, and/or come to see us perform!

Other bands may give you loud music and stupid lyrics, but only Captain Chemical gives you loud music and stupid lyrics with MORE COWBELL.

Wait, Hozzy... that's a guitar you're beating on, not a cowbell!

Ladies and gentlemen... presenting Captain Chemical Band guitarist HOZZY HASHBOURNE!

The Capt Chemical Band never stops getting unexpected pleasures. Spotify added our song "Drive Into The Ocean" to their Mitch Easter Radio playlist. Easter produced the early REM albums and is the godfather of jangle rock. Suddenly, our stupid music is in good company! Some friends on here too!

The countdown ends: NEW ALBUM DROPS OVERNIGHT! (It's already live in Australia!)
The Captain Chemical merch table looks good with the addition of CDs for our EP True Vacuity. The album streams everywhere starting Monday 30 June. The CD version includes two bonus tracks. High energy musical madness!

Self love is OK. Marrying yourself is weird. But divorcing yourself is insane! Yet all of that is what one woman did, inspiring Captain Chemical to discuss the issues in the song "Sologamous." Hear the madness on our new EP True Vacuity, out Monday!
June 28, 2025 at 6:09 PM
The countdown continues: T-MINUS 2 DAYS
TRUE VACUITY will be available everywhere on Monday, and the whole world will get to hear what a handful of folks heard yesterday. (bottled farts, snail mucous, cadaver flights, and high energy music.) THANK YOU to all who joined the listening party Thursday!

The countdown continues: T-MINUS 4 DAYS
Cleaning dog poop is a cutthroat commercial business. An advertising war between Doo Doo Bros and Poop Scoopers is raging; both companies' signs are everywhere! Captain Chemical's take on the dog poop wars is on their new EP True Vacuity, releasing 30 June.

Imagine sitting an airplane flight for eight hours... with a corpse on the seat next to you! Yes, this actually happened, and Captain Chemical tells you all about it on their new EP True Vacuity, out 30 June.

The countdown continues: T-MINUS 6 DAYS
Would you willingly put snail mucous on your face? Well, you may have been doing this without even knowing it! Snail mucous is an ingredient in many skin care products. Captain Chemical tells you all about it on their new EP True Vacuity, releasing 30 June.

Artists will often post a track listing for their upcoming album, but it means little when no one has heard any of the songs yet. HOWEVER, when Captain Chemical posts a track listing, you pay attention - our song titles tell you everything you need to know!

The countdown begins: T-MINUS 10 DAYS
12 months since the last Capt Chem album, a whole year of WTF, OMG, and stupidity for us to cram into a six song EP. On TRUE VACUITY, we've done our best. From farts in a jar to snail mucous facials, it's all you need to know about the decline of our species.

Our new song "Drive Into The Ocean" has been out less than 3 weeks, but it has already hit the top 10 most listened to Captain Chemical songs of all-time! We're not certain who is listening, but whoever you are THANK YOU! We hope you're enjoying the song... and all of our other musical madness!
June 7, 2025 at 11:48 PM
May isn't over, but it's already the best month the Captain Chemical Band has ever experienced in terms of streams on Spotify. "Drive Into The Ocean" had over 1000 streams its first week alone. Wow, you sure are a bunch of sick moth- I mean, thank you for sharing the musical madness!

If you haven't heard Captain Chemical's new track "Drive Into The Ocean", how can you live with yourself? Get on it now! And if you have heard it, why don't you just tell your friends and listen again? Help us fire the algorithm. Besides, the world needs a laugh! open.spotify.com/album/7xGtZo...

New Captain Chemical music comes out MONDAY 19 MAY, with world premieres on Uncle Funkbeard's Indie Music Showcase (music) and Clysmic's Indie Boom Shockwave (video). Until then, enjoy the back story of the band's wardrobe... volume up!

Avoid artificial music! Remember that AI music is nothing but the regurgitation of musical ideas that started with actual humans. Recognize the human sources of creativity by supporting indie musicians and artists!

Here's a first world problem: Our new EP, coming out early June, had the working title "Vapid Drivel." However, it turns out that another band actually put out an album with that title in 1997. Go figure! So, our new EP will now be called "True Vacuity" - six true stories of human stupidity!
April 29, 2025 at 5:18 AM
VAPID DRIVEL is the first new material released in nearly a year from Captain Chemical. This six-song EP includes the single "Drive Into The Ocean", an ode to the most absurd GPS mistakes that really happened... and it's coming in May. Get your giggle caps ready and stay tuned!
April 23, 2025 at 5:12 PM
Coming fairly soon... in time for summer! Everything you've wanted to hear about: Selling Farts In A Jar, Flying With The Dead, Scoopin' The Dog Poop, Snail Mucous Face, Drive Into The Ocean, and more!
