Kill The Body And The Head Will Die.

About Me


i was born in the damp and dreary pacific northwest, the result of research my father was conducting into what he called “ superior breeding ”. the local authorities called it a gross misuse of science and technology but no matter, he was never a real scientist anyway. he would sort of just become one after a couple 12 packs and a handful of pills.
grew up in a bizarre little town on washington's olympic peninsula. an area populated, for the most part, by earth hippies, red-necks and retirees.
strange vibrations indeed.
public education was, for me, tedious at best. i probably would have ditched had it not been for girls and art class. school was followed by extended periods spent homeless and jobless cavorting with tramps and lunatics in the name of pure fun all the time.
many debaucherous adventures unfolded!
lived in the woods, lived in the trunk of a car, lived with girls, traveled around, played in a few bands, spent some time as a homeless hollywood street urchin, lived in a tool shed, rode a bmx and refused to get a car or a drivers licence, blah, blah, blah... you get the picture.
everything changed when i was introduced to the multitrack recorder.
i quickly became obsessed with manipulating audio, pieced together a modest home recording set up and fully immersed myself in recording, illustration and graphic design.
not long after i became friends with a mentally disabled man and helped turn him into " AK47- the worlds first mentally disabled rapper " (who has since adopted me as his "manager").
i enjoy a few days of quiet productive time with the phone turned off tempered by a few days of full throttle, blow-out debauchery oft times with my attorney in tow blasted out of his mind on booze and amphetamines making a goddamn spectacle of himself.
lately i have been spending most of my time locked away inside my super secret tree house laboratory surrounded by a swirling maelstrom of dayglo pop culture trash art tirelessly melding sounds and images into what my attorney insists is " the next big thing ". to be honest though, he was blacked-out drunk when he said this and moments later the rat bastard passed out cold and soiled himself on my couch so i’m not sure that his opinion really counts for much.
to insure that i remain properly inspired in these dark and wretched times i try to limit myself to a strict diet of sparks, mainstream pop radio (to the point of nausea) and an endless barrage of b-movie sleaze-o-rama.
Random facts about me:
I live in a studio apartment. I have no pets. Despite appearances and the company I keep, I don’t do drugs. I like a good black light. My cars name is “Otto”. I used to live in a haunted house. Currently my favorite song is “ Umbrella ” by Rihanna. (Yeah, you read that right. It's a straight shot of sugar for the ears you bastards!) My all time favorite song is “ Since U Been Gone ” by Kelly Clarkson. I cut my own hair. My favorite cereal is Count Chocula. Sometimes I climb up onto the roof and watch for U.F.O.s. I eat a banana every morning. I like to watch a movie with a glass of wine, some microwave popcorn and a box of chocolate covered raisins. Most of the time I just want to be held.

VIDEO FEATURE PRESENTATION!
Here I am on stage with AK47 "the worlds first mentally disabled rapper" performing his smash hit "AK47 In Da House" (he's the one in the sunglasses and crazy Raiders gear).
The music is a little low in the mix and the bass is lost cuz it was filmed from right behind a stage monitor but who cares, LETS ROKK handicap rap style!

Music:

Um, yeah.... I kind of have a little problem in this department. You see I'm pretty much OBSESSED with whatever wretched audio diarrhea is spewing from the stinking ass that is Mainstream Pop Radio.
I CAN'T STOP!
And I'm talking about the worst of the worst. Kelly Clarkson, Pink, Avril, Lifehouse, Christina. The list goes on and I love it! Give me more and turn UP the volume! And NO I'm not trying to be cute or ironic.
This is SERIOUS!
I have been seeing a counselor about this and I've even attended group therapy sessions but I don't think it's helping.
When I'm not slowly destroying myself with this stuff I try to counter balance with stuff like Buckethead, Merzbow, Nine Inch Nails, Kool Keith, some ridiculously obscure Mike Patton thing, Venetian Snares, The Charlie Burns AXEperience, Richard Poker and the Pipe Strokers, my friends bands, sound effects cds, the toilet flushing. img src="http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f111/l3n2k6/bubble2.j pg"

Movies:

I love them all. Way too many to list. But my favorites are the trashy B-grade horror and Xploitation type from the 1950's-1980's. The ones where they were REALLY trying to make a good movie but somehow the whole thing just took a dump. Those are the best. img src="http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f111/l3n2k6/bubble3.j pg"

Television:

7th Heaven, the T.V. Guide Channel.img src="http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f111/l3n2k6/bubble4.j pg"

Books:

As far as I know Kelly Clarkson has never written a book. img src="http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f111/l3n2k6/bubble5.j pg"

Heroes:

Sheep cleverly disguised as “independent thinkers”. Fashion Victims. The lowest common denominator. Alpha male tough-guy types. Pretentious "Artist" types. Culture Vultures. Homophobes and Racists. Uptight Conservatives.
OOPS...... Oh wait a minute, what I meant to say was my heros are the EXACT OPPOSITE of everything I just said.img src="http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f111/l3n2k6/bubble6.j pg"

LETTERS!!

Everybody loves to get mail- I know I do (except bills!).Having a pen-pal can be so much fun! And I always write back, provided there is a return address. So I thought it would be fun to share a few o...

Hey Len, are you making fun of a mentally disabled person??

The short answer is no, I'm not making fun of a mentally disabled guy.But an explanation is probably in order since I get asked about this all of the time.A lot of times when I run into someone that I...

Incredibly strange events and the end of Stardust Superkill (before it ever began).

Looking back now I can't help but think- could it be that I had been living in an actual haunted house?And, bizarre as it my seem, is it possible that the voices of the dead had somehow found their wa...
