The History Like fated Krypton, Detroit is dying, and 3ball Charlie is Detroit's Ka-lel. For years our hero lived in ignorance of his special powers, slowly poisoned by a sinister sense of accomplishment and comfort, seeping into his every movement as a crippling spiritual lethargy. But 3ball Charlie is not a man, but a thought, a feeling. In its tangible form, 3ball Charlie is a 3-headed Hell dog creating a collection of songs that describe the very strange feelings and ideas from the kind of repressed personality that only the great city of Detroit can generate from its soiled, mutant seed.
paper or plastic?
Created as a last foothold against a new dark ages of corporate feudalism, 3ball Charlie is a mixture of radical social ideology, insightful lyrics, substandard production facilities, and pretty-boy good looks. Founded in 2001 as a form of Vaporware, 3ball Charlie began existence as a roughly defined compilation of songwriting and the image of a man who could fit a golf ball, a tennis ball, and a billiard ball in his mouth at the same time. The balls hit the streets, bars, and 3-floor gambling, dancing, and whoring speakeasies in 2005 and were quickly consumed like a kind of super crack rock, leaving trails of drool and broken CD cases. Stay tuned for the christopher atkins EP due out in early 2008 with studio versions of their most well-received material and a couple of surprises.
