Inspector 22

Inspector 22 started as the solo-project of Todd Emmert in 1997, initially recording cassettes to trade with friend Clarque Blomquist and an acquaintance named Grux. There were probably 15 or 20 cassette releases made in editions of two or three, of which two notable CDs were compiled: "Friendship Cemetery Revisited...", a twenty song "best of" and "Worship The Shoe", an avant-garde a cappella album. In 2002 a seven inch, "Rainy Day Saints", was pressed in an edition of 200 and self-released. In 2003 the eight song EP, "Disco Mystic", was recorded, but never officially released. In 2008 the concept album "Irni" was released, which marked the first Inspector 22 album for an actual functioning label. 2008 also saw the formation of "The Inspector 22 Band", which includes Mike Glass of Fin Fang Foom on drums, former Spider Bagger Chris Girard on guitar, Ryan Richardson of the Kingsbury Manx on bass and Todd on guitar and vocals. Odessa Records will release a full length album by the band in the Spring of 2010 entitled "Drop Dead." The 2009 albums "Hey Man, I Understand." and "The Waiting Grave" and the 2008 album "Irni" are all available now for your listening pleasure, or pain, at CD Alley in Chapel Hill and from these and other distributors:"http://www.odessarecords.com", "Http://www.tomentosarecords.com/dontrustheruin.html", "http://www.northeastindie.com/store.htmins", "http://www.time-lagrecords.com/distro"...
