Digital Leather is Shawn Foree and company. He's a bit artsy and has probably done more drugs in one weekend than I did throughout my 4 years at college (ok, that might be a lie). His music (minus lyrics) reminds me a bit of Bowie meets Joy Division, and mama likes that.

Lyrically, I can't say I "get" him - he tends to sprinkle the words "Nazi" and "fag" into his songs as if they were all-purpose seasoning. But hey, he's got a way to make people talk about him no?



Lyrics aside, I hear the live show is worth throwing down the cheddar for. Who knows, maybe you'll see Michelle "Bombshell" McGee there, swastika and all!
