are you ready for another horrifying tale UNSUITABLE FOR ROMANTICS?
i think you are, my friend. please enjoy birthday present.

countdown to a breakdown is the 10th compilation in the series from the garagepunk hideout (GRGPNK records out of st. louis), which i recently did the cover art for. turns out, drawing a pantsless, pill-popping, suicidal basket case requires your full attention; a little peak into the sausage making- i erroneously gave him a green mohawk at the outset. duh! pretty obvious after it was pointed out to me...not that kind of late 70's punk. i mean, this is the GARAGE punk hideout. at that point i opted for more of a pompadour, which seemed still relevant and the least intrusive fix. what can i say... sometimes you jump into a project and forget to look back. and here i thought the crying jesus was going to be the controversial element! 

with songs like 666ick of it,  frankencop, and where is the werewolf?, there is plenty of  volume on this volume. there are 33 songs on this one alone, and at the 10th in the series, that's  a lot of  crackin' tracks.
 artistically speaking, i'm in good company too. obviously this music has a time honored visual language to it and all these artists have it in spades. here's a sample of other volumes (below, clockwise) as done by idon mine, shawn dickinson, stephen blickenstaff, and darren merinuk.
