Misunderstood Artist? Mad Genius? Or just plain ol' Weirdo? I found myself recently reflecting on the career of the former Sassiest Boy in America. Rediscovering the brilliant 13-Point Program to Destroy America by his first band The Nation of Ulysses was the first step. Now I am eagerly awaiting my copy of the just released live album by Make Up (pictured above) entitled Untouchable Sound. Recorded in 2000 at the Black Cat in DC (a show which included yours truly in the audience), the recording features many of the bands amazing Gospel Yeah Yeah stylings including a rousing cover of "Wade in the Water". I have been less enamored with his latest band, Weird War, although I have to give him credit for continuing to push the envelope - check out their videos below to see what I mean.
