There’s no denying there’s something appealing about an album with song titles like ‘I Got My Best Friend Brother’s Pregnant At A Wedding Reception In Texas’ and ‘I Don’t Like Her But She Helps Out On The Farm’, and from the opening ‘Young Gay Monkey On Rollerskates’ it’s all out hillbilly weirdness. It’s kind of like a one man Moldy Peaches, but replacing smug stoners with a genuinely scary redneck madman.I’m not sure any sane human being could sit down and listen to the whole album in one sitting, at least not and stay sane. Sandman Magazine
"I Don't Really Like Her, But She Helps Out On The Farm" is touching, mainly because it is true. How many of us have ugly girlfriends we just can't shake because we know the reality without them. Not knowing how to turn on any other kitchen appliance other than the microwave, or which aisle the 'pebble dashed bog stain remover' is in at the supermarket. This song also contains the grim line "My house burnt down and my best friend said he hates me". He is brilliant the way he draws you in with simple chords and makes you think you can guess the next rhyming word but oh no you can't, no mortal could ever guess a Charles E. Cullen rhyme. Rinsed in the beauty of improvisation this disgustingly real collection of songs can be both shocking and amusing. Joyzine
Virginian chicken farmer, Charles E. Cullen is musically somewhere amid Johnny Cash, Neil Young, The Moldy Peaches and King Missile. He looks frighteningly similar to Iggy Pop. He's a chicken farmer, qualified engineer, explosives handler, occasional cross-dresser, b-film-maker and most importantly for us a musician!
"Welcome to the World of Charles E Cullen" takes us on a disturbing & highly entertaining country-folk trip through a world of trailer trash, farmboys, disease, dubious narcotics and gay monkeys! CD Comes with a free Cullen DVD film "Superbadass" while stocks last.

Hey Charles. You are a lot of people's hero and I am one of those people. Growing up your show frequently made me laugh until I felt like my gut would split, and it kept my imagination alive. It was also pretty educational. Thanks.
(NB Almost here if you are in Sheffield. If not you will have to get it online, but in this high-tech, information technologically adept, world-wide community, isnt everywhere prospectively here?)
