Influences: Good music, bad music, things that are classy, things that are in poor taste, things that are vague, artistic chameleons, juxtapositions, fine art, not so fine art, sarcasm, orgasms, micro-organisms, jokes that only I find to be amusing, smooth soulful sounds, sheets of pure noise, words, a loss for words, the notes that I’m not playing, the opposite sex, ugliness, beauty, life, death, dumpsters, trash heaps, tumble weeds, the swamps, the gutters, the ghettos, the finer things in life (and the pursuit thereof), the sticks, the city, the open road, joy, anger, desolation, depravity, decadence, desperation, debauchery, pretentious fucks who think they invented punk rock, fear of the unknown, that feeling you get when you hear or try something for the first time and it sets your heart on fire, the feeling I get when I write something that I think is good, caffeine, scotch, cigars, a few unmentionables, the fact that I love religious imagery because of its mysterious beauty, the fact that I hate religious imagery for what it’s done to the people of earth, the fact that you’re actually still reading this, stuff, things and other assorted whatnots.
Sounds Like: the devil’s music.
