I have "played" instruments ever since I was a kid. A LOT of instruments: the clarinet (which I still have downstairs somewhere), the saxophone, the guitar, the keyboard, the RECORDER of death, the triangle, the plastic dollar harmonica that I bought at the local grocery store in the kid's aisle, the drums (or beating on things with my way cool Judas Priest drum sticks that I bought at the mall), and so on.
At one point I had three electric guitars (with super Zoom effects box), a big acoustic guitar (I call him Carlos the Magnificent) and two mini-acoustic guitars (I call them cheap). Now, the funny thing is, even though I had all of these guitars, I could barely play them. I might possibly know about 6 chords and the super basic notes. Thats it. No more. This means that I can play for any country group out. Any at all. I mean really, ANY (don't be denyin').
You see, although I have always "played" an instrument, I never... how do you say... practiced at all so I did not become good at ANY of them. Instead, I know just enough to be dangerous and to annoy people because I THINK I can play.
Open your ears, open your mind, and check out the tunes below and HEAR the beautiful musical stylings of DROOLING MANIAC for yourself.- Angel: Intro
This is a little Intro I put together (and played Carlos my Acoustic Guitar OF ROCK!!!) for a video that I was making for one of my classes in college. This is actually circa 2001, - Angel: Kick It
More of my guitar stylings for background music in a video (for the same video above). I just don't know why Van Halen hasn't dumped Eddie for ME yet!!! Fools. One day, they shall taste my tasty riffs and will worship at my feet (or not). - There's Somebody Out There
One day, when I was bored out of my mind at work, I wrote a bit of a song-like thing in my notebook. I decided, what the hell, why not try to record it all onto my computer. Everything you hear in this tune is me. I layered me playing the guitar – over me singing – over me beating the table to get that drum effect – over me singing high – over me singing low – over me snapping my fingers. It... uh... is interesting. I believe after listening to this I realized I would one day ROCK THE WORLD!!! - Gypsy Sweetheart
For this tune, I wanted to do the super-cheesiest version of Gypsy Sweetheart that I could. I believe I have definitely achieved this. You can hear my awesome Electric Guitar skills with my amazing background singing in... uh... the background. - Hurling Tiskets
Hurrah, its time for the Evil Demon Gargling version of A-Tisket A-Tasket complete with pig snort at the end. - Killing a Mockingbird
For this tune, I wanted to take that stupid Mockingbird song and totally fuck it all to hell. I added weird background noises, stupid echo effects layered onto me saying words like "Fran Drescher", "Sick Monkey", and "Punch Me" (though you can barely hear this through all the effects I ran it through), then ran the song through at super-high-speed and put it right on top to be REALLY odd. - You Don't Know Me
Now THIS tune! I truly believe this tune may be the worst thing ever recorded in existence. I wanted to make the loudest, most grating, psuedo-gothy-chunk-artsy-weird-whatthefuck-industrial-metally kind of song that really had no meaning to it except to see how many people would take the time to listen to it and then exclaim at the end: "What the hell was that. I... I don't get it. Should I get it. What the fuck is wrong with you?" It actually just turned out to be NOISE instead of any kind of music at all. The beginning literally hurts your eardrums. You know you want to listen to it now. You KNOW you have to. After you cave in to the peer pressure and listen to this please read the rest of this paragraph. STOP HERE UNTIL YOU LISTEN TO IT.......NOW READ HERE AFTER YOU LISTEN TO IT.....Hahaha (evil laughter), now YOU have listened to it and I have wasted YOUR time and caused YOU some loss of hearing. Hahahah (more evil laughter), I warned ya'... oooh... I warned ya'. Bet you'll listen to me NEXT time. Thats what you get for buckling to ear pressure.
