Boulder

Boulder was an American heavy metal band with influences from hardcore punk and the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM), that was active between 1991 and 2005. Before releasing their debut album, The Rage of It All, they had toured in several clubs in Ohio. The group's bassist, Jamie Walters, would later play for Destructor And Midnight. The group in 2000 released a compilation of their early material under the album name of Ripping Christ, which featured the controversial track 'Kick The Pregnant'.

Links To Peel
Peel was a fan of the album Ripping Christ and seemed to have discovered the album one year after it's official release in America. He would often play tracks from the album on his shows in early 2002. However he refused to play the track 'Kick The Pregnant', because of the name, despite liking the music. Peel would mention this controversial track on media interviews in 2002, especially on the TV programme Room 101, where he mentioned to Paul Merton about it:


 * JOHN PEEL: "There was a track the other day, on one record which actually gone beyond the boundaries of decency, there was a song called 'Kick The Pregnant', which I thought, better not play that one"


 * PAUL MERTON: "Yes I guess it's not Des O'Conner's best"
