View my page on The GaragePunk Hideout
Influences: stooges, velvet underground, captain beefheart, beasts of bourbon, the scientists, the birthday party, gun club, jesus & mary chain, monks, flaming stars, the drones, chrome cranks, pussy galore, oblivians, the fall, the cramps, tom waits, dirty three, nick cave & the bad seeds, gallon drunk etc. also, surely, for the classics as johnny cash, hank williams, lee hazlewood, harry belafonte, the sinatra family & dino, dylan, cohen and most of them all, nina simone. howlin' wolf, john lee hooker etc. not to forget about can, faust, einstürzende neubauten, swans, john cale & tony conrad, primordeal garage punk as well as roots music from all over this planet, and anyway, i am curious and easily bored. for years struck by the beauty and strict politics of monotone-basic & plain stupous delta blues & rockabilly, i begin to wonder where the next frontiers will be. these days experimentating a lot on drones and whatever will be a valuable tool to generate atmosphere. noise and attitude, passion and intuition will hopefully keep me excited enough to try my luck on new stuff every day. maniac, amen.
Sounds Like: restless. sleepless. stuffed with arrogance, doldrum fury, vanity and rightful depression. perversion of beauty. i passed the gun to her hand, but she refused to shoot me. retromantic rock'n'roll with noise and a heartbeat, one hand on her chest while the other holds the bottle. blood on the guitar. the crack in the ceiling, the stains on the matress. the praying hands. you get the picture.
