My Dad is Dead

Over 2 decades of obscurity

About Me

Born in 1985 in Cleveland Ohio as just one guy with a drum machine, MDID is currently writing songs for it's unlucky 13th CD for release hopefully before we all get blown up by our crazy "leaders". The band's long and relatively obscure history includes 3 records on the Homestead label in the 80's, 2 on Scat Records in the early 90's, and 2 on Emperor Jones Records in the late 90's, 2 European and several U.S. tours. For updates and details, visit http://www.mydadisdead.com/blog, and I know that all myspace friends don't yet have a copy of our latest CD, A Divided House... Please advance forthwith to http://www.mydadisdead.com/store.htm and rectify that little "situation"

Ever get tired of your own voice?

This month's player selections are a homage to those times, when you just can't stand the sound of your own voice.. a handful of MDID rockage without the nasally vocals.. a couple by request, a couple...
