ABOUT

I'm an OP; Original Punk and have been in many bands. I write lyrics, music, arrange and produce and have an extensive knowledge and love for most types of music, but I have found that a Punk/Hardcore or some sort of cathartic form of both is my main love. This music is timeless and keeps a person a pissed off teenager for life, to some degree. Those who know know lol. I have a concept already called HB0MB where I take the name Joe-4 after the first Soviet Hydrogen Bomb test. The names up for grabs are Ivy Mike, Bravo Romeo and any other nuclear test names. It doesn't hurt to start somewhere based on experience.
Looking to form a band with younger people than myself and then pass it on to them to carry on if they wish. My last band was called Blastfinger and is on Spotify, YouTube, just about everywhere. It is 11 eclectic songs that provide you with a sample of the above. Ronnie Champagne produced and engineered it like he did Alice in Chains and Jane's Addiction etc.
If you hear anything you like from Blastfinger, remember, Blastfinger will inform HB0MB, not imitate it. I want to get harder and more dangerous. Any level of songwriting is welcome and I am used to working with snippets. Notice there is no blues reference because I am looking for players outside of the blues motifs. Can you create NEW ?
