Germs
The Germs were a classic LA punk rock band formed in 1977, disbanded in 1980. Their fast spit-and-blood punk rock sound mixed with singer Darby Crash’s (real name Jan Paul Beahm) highly literate and dark poetic lyrics made them, to many, one of the most distinctive bands in the entire punk scene. The Germs are still remembered by fans as being among the best in the genre. They disbanded when Crash, after long bouts with drug addiction and self-destructive behavior, committed suicide at age 22 on December 7, 1980.

Ollie Bomb!
This Song called "Ollie Bomb" is about Taylor Hawkins and I wrote it the week after he passed. It is song number 4 on my sophomore album "BIRDS ARE REAL". Over the following months I had my buddy Ray James (Check him out on all platforms!) come over and record the dueling solos you hear at the second part of the song. The drum solo I did at the end was my feelings of grief in solo form. I recorded the drum solo the day after he passed, because as a drummer the world got a little quieter when Taylor passed.more

CDs are better than MP3s
You are the first to hear it because bandcamp/slaps feels similar to what CDs are about. I wrote this song because of how mad I am at how long it takes for apps to play music, when you can pop a CD into the player and then hit play and then BAM MUSIC IN YOUR SOUL. Oh and yes I name the albums that I would take with me if an UAP abducted me. I did forget about Dre, but I figured aliens would already know about Dre. Didn't aliens smoke weed first? What albums am I forgetting by the way? Out on all platforms tonight at midnight :)more
