HOLY BOLIVIA: Day 3 - Truckers Still Own the...
Yesterday I woke up in La Paz almost going to the doctor due to lack of oxygen, luckily our driver / Bolivian’s gift to the world, Fernando, saved me with oxygen pills. After getting my color back we hit the road to scout locations on Ruta De La Muerte (Dead’s Road). Dripping in sweat from one of the most terrifying car rides I’ve ever experienced that you only see in movies, we...

…and here it is, the album that started it all for The #12 Looks Like You. We recorded this record when we were about 16/17 years old in Paramus, NJ with magician producer Jayson DeZuzio. Not sure if we really knew what we were doing, we just wanted to create the craziest noise possible. Not get big & become popular, but to sound like every god’s worst enemy. Just even typing this...

This is the EP that was supposed to be a special limited edition 500 copy release. It was put out to hold us over until nuclear.sad.nuclear was released. After this came out, we noticed that one of the songs on this EP, a cover of My Sharona by The Knack, had really fucking blew up. Like REALLY blew up. hahaha, so funny what sitting in a living room on a boring day watching old 80s music videos...

This is our first official full length record called Nuclear.Sad.Nuclear. This is the album that really made us feel like, fuck…this shit is for real for real. I remember right after we released this record, we toured to California for the first time ever and played a venue in Corona where we arrived to a sold out show. I mean, cmon…18yrs old selling out a 500 cap room for our first...

I released my old band, The #12 Looks Like You, latest album Worse Than Alone few posts ago. Here is the record right before that one called MONGREL.

@COFFEE = @RealGOD
It’s crazy how much coffee can change my way of thinking. I know it’s best known for waking you up in the mornings, maybe even an excuse to take a girl out that you really like who isn’t into you but she thinks “oh it’s just coffee why not”, and you’re thinking “holy macaroni she’s coming out for coffee she SO wants to smash.” Whatever it...

I live a pretty busy bee life, wearing many hats throughout the day. Along the way, I’ve met many new faces in my journey who don’t really know much about my past. One of the things on my list of the most proud accomplishments I’ve achieved was creating and playing in my band The #12 Looks Like You. With that said, I want to give everyone who hasn’t had the chance to know...
