taxidermy
dead animals
Power Metal, Grindcore, the rawest of the raw black metal, lame chuggy early 90's death metal, Slim Cessna's Auto Club, 16 Horse Power, Johny Cash, The Carter Family, songs about the sea, olde timey songs sung by toothless Appalachians, Macabre, clawhammer banjo, any music made by a blind person, Leon Redbone, songs about jelly, Tom Waites, sad songs sung by plaintive men, Iron and Wine, Mastodon, Sanitys Dawn, Ascheron, Clotted Symetric Sex OrgON, Blind GaurdiON...I'm done now. I sometimes worry my own taste in music is really horrible...not because of the bands I listen to, but because of the bands I was in. I will gladly play you horrible music I made as a teenager and you will quickly learn why I am now a taxidermist. Amazing songs such as "Soaked in Cum", "Lugubrious Face Fuck" and the immortal classic "Saprophytic Pig Rape" await your aural attentions!
