The riot-uke or uke-punk contingent is the nextobvious step in a dishonorable but highly entertaining tradition.Adapting rock and punk songs to the ukulele is not so much a deconstruction as it is wantondestruction.
The ukulele's Hawaiian origins asan ornate small guitar to accompany beautiful island warblings was long ago warped by the Americanand British desire to use it to play drinking songs. It splits the quaint, strum-and-patter realmof the uke wide open by depicting dozens of musicians using the uke punkishly and experimentally, aseverything from neo-Dada to electronic innovations to potty-mouthed punk.These forward-thinking, far-out four-string-axe acts-found everywhere from Massachusetts to Kentuckyand especially (no surprise) California-include the distortion exercises of Williwaw, the ensembleaugmenters Steven Swartz and Alan Drogin of Songs from a Random House, uke modernists Uke Til UPuke and Ukefink, and skewed traditionalists like underground cartoonist Robert Armstrong, a co-founding member of R.

That's what punk rock was supposed to be doing when it reduced disco to rubble in the late 1970s by bypassing studio savvy in favor of rootsy strumming and hoarse vocals. But even without that sort of overkill, it's possible to take this seminal '60s psychedelic rave-up and turn it, using a laughable instrument no bigger than your forearm, into something savagely sparse, stirring and psychotic. This doesn't take into account the awesome keyboard riff, which I'm now trying to work out on harmonica for a truly disturbing one-man-band rendition. Playing the song on a ukulele-that rinky-tink toy instrument beloved by Hawaiians and music hall maniacs with bad teeth-you can wake this restless monster up gently with a quaint strum, then by the second verse start slamming the strings with more abandon, until by the end of the song you're scraping and scratching the barest and brashest notes out of the instrument like a demented Dashboard Confessional car crash.
