My greasy bass playing & my greasy past
GREAT review of my band BOMB on “Cosmic Hearse”. Excerpt:
…Dean was a modern day Rimbaud, drinking and fucking his way through the bars and bedrooms of the city he loves and hates. Dean’s success is that he can do this without coming off as a pretentious tortured artist. Bomb was real, Bomb was fucked. Bomb had problems and they weren’t afraid to let it be known, in fact, they wore them with pride like a shiner or a hickey….
Love it. I can only hope that art I’m making now, that people are digging today, will still be getting reviewed in eighteen years.

Great review. Love the part about wearing your problems on your sleeve, like scars….you know “chicks dig scars” And you do come off *not* sounding like a tortured artist, but one who has learned from your mistakes. (And thank whomever that you have)

Well, if you hadn’t learned from your mistakes, moved to LA and met your wife and started podcasting i wouldn’t have met two wonderful friends…(that’ll be enough of the sappy stuff for now)
