progressive/aggressive D.I.Y. hardcore noise, punk, rave. traveling. helping make and publish records and books. curating events. learning about myself, truth, and the appauling differences between the two.
pretty sure just about anybody who can stomach the above, or maybe a few who can't as well... HEY HIRE ME TO DRAW YOUR BAND'S ARTWORK!!!I WORK WAY CHEAP. MORE EXAMPLES IN MY BLAWG. IT WILL MAKE YOUR BAND SEEM WILD AND INSANE. NO FUCKING KIDDING.
noisecore (Final Exit, Nikudorei), grindcore punk (Gore Beyond Necropsy, Unholy Grave), gabber (Sharpnel, Vankmen), hardcore punk (Bruce Banner, Black Flag), harsh noise (Prurient, Randy Yau), urban rap (early Mobb Deep, Evolve), dark or challenging punk rock (Rudimentary Peni, Crass), deathrock (early Christian Death), early experimental punk (Foetus, Screamers, Throbbing Gristle) paving the way for contemporary experimental punk of course, religiously challenging folk (Psychic TV, Current 93), hxc acapella, personal taperecordings.
deathtrip or cinema of transgression (Zedd, Kern, and their friends), select horror (Texas Chainsaw, Zombie, I Zombie, some Hellraiser stuff), and the scattered stuff I've come across over time like Begotten, Dogstarman, Caddy Shack. I'm not very fluent in film yet though.
late night 80's movie about summer camp adventures with volley ball babes and jet skiing, that's about it if that even counts ...and when I was a kid I was way into a show called "Secret City" in which you were taught basic drawing techniques by a spaceship commander, an android, an intergalactic spy, and a dragon.
Hope For The Flowers. I like to read interviews or stuff written by people who've influenced me prior I guess. I don't read that much otherwise which I'm not proud of, but everybody takes in info differently. (that's just an excuse though) I'll read stuff by Genesis P-Orridge, Marilyn Manson, Brian Miller, James Swill.
Christ, Gandhi... but most are still alive and active, so I might have to wait to decide who I wanna let know that shit. some of my "heroes" aren't individual people anyway but groups of people collectively pushing one thing or another forward, changing things around them in some substancial way.
