Old Fat God

Never classic.

About Me

Crustacean.

Last year, there was a project planned involving a lot of friends playing a lot of songs on a record. But it never actually happened. At some point in the summer, I recorded this version of Suzanne the Plan's "Crustacean" for the album that never was. After sitting on it all these months, I figured I would release it here on myspace. An asshole would call this an "exclusive release." Since I'm an asshole, I will not offer an alternative description.
For physical methods of obtaining more music, click this and we'll work something out, either via Paypal or U.S. postal. The available albums are Old Fat God , I'm Inconsequent , Supplication , Strike the Sun , At the Park of Shoals (the split with eric schwan) , The Cryptographer & the Corpse , and (soon) Ichabod Hate v. Old Fat God.And as an added (stupid) bonus, with any other CD ordered/asked for I'll include for FREE The Stairwell of Doom vol. 1 featuring myself and eric schwan playing live to an audience of one another. Can you pass this offer up? You most certainly can.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 3/25/2006
Band Website: myspace.com/ichabodhate
Band Members: Just the OFG, although sometimes Ichabod Hate and Laceration Dick mess up the joint. Eric Schwan, Terry Conrad, Kevin Weiland, JR Sheetz, Nick McGaw Perigrin (of Suzanne the Plan), and Garret Anders-Lauden have also pitched in a note or two. Caleb Durand, however, has not (although I did record all of "I'm Inconsequent" and "Supplication" using his four track and microphones). Dean Thornton has helped out tremendously on all albums, most especially "The Cryptographer & the Corpse."
Influences: Crusty Father Time telling rapacious and tender stories to the dewy-eyed Baby New Year nestled dumbstruck in his lap. Little boys with empty heads high up in desert towers. Ted Nugent. The last sip of milk at the bottom of the bowl.
Record Label: Father Time / Baby New Year
Type of Label: Major
