vonhummer

There's this local music artist here in Portland, OR called vonhummer. He has a show on public access every week or so, and at first he terrified me. He wears these strange lobsters in his hair, has a talking picture of an Asian guy, and his videos are like acid trips with not enough acid.

However, last night I tuned out his horrible videos and focused intently on his lyrics. The guy is awesome.

Vonhummer.com is his website, and if you go to the download page, you can get mp3s of all kinds of songs. The songs that made me a fan is "Tell the Gang on the Corner Not to Be Ignorant" and "Reality Ain't What It Used to Be".

He's quite weird/unique, and his voice takes just a tad getting used to, but once you get past his eccentricities, there's a man with strong views and a pure intention. If you like unique music, check him out. Good stuff.
