THAT 1 GUY

Songs in the Key of Beotch

2006-11-13

New to the music genre of extremely odd rock is a sick combination of Beck and Nine Inch Nails in the one man band That One Guy, a Mike Silverman joint. His lyrics are full of birds plucking peoples' eyes out, weasel pot pies, meat storms, monkeys pooping on shoes, and a whole bunch of stringed-together nonsense; but, it's extremely entertaining. It's amazing what one man can do with a single instrument, what he calls the "magic pipe", a long silver stick that he kicks and strums, and he truly knows how to "kick and strum" that thing. Some playable tracks are 7 "Axlrod", 8 "Ball o' Bonafide Fax", and perhaps the most well-known track 10 "It's Raining Meat."
