COMING VERY SOON IN 09
REBEL SCUM The MOVIE (Trailer)
Myself and anyone that's nuts enough to get involved in a project with me!
Influences
Guns, Girls, Guitars! Hard Drinkin', jails, Hospitals, The DT's, Seizues from Lack of Drink (in Jail)whores, Fist fights (especially a couple Tennessee Dog choking Ass Whuppins I've taking. Loss of rights and Freedom, Injustices, Sick Stupid People, Hard Work, Being a Stage Hand/Rodie for damn near 10 years and just about every song I ever heard. If it didn't influence me in a good way it taught me what I never, ever wanna do. Mostly life it'sself though, Think about it in my 35 years on this planet I watched Our great Country go from an almost FREE Nation to a Nation on Film 90% of our Lives, Phones tapped at will, and recorded if Someone in a High position feels we should be.
Sorta like George Orwell predictid in Animal Farm and 1984. I have watched a FREE Nation turn into a POLICE STATE right in front of The Citizens eyes, with their urging. Just by using smart, snappy words like Patriot Act and Homeland security.. If there was a real threat to our Security would the Borders really be wide open. If you knew someone was PISSED, mad enough to kill you and in your neighborhood would you go to bed with your doors Open. 9/11, lol can't you people see anything. Yea, this influences me as much as any music I might hear.
THE TRUE KING OF ROCK n ROLL

Sounds sorta like an old cat out there howling awy on a fence post.
A shining example of what should have been an abortion, Christopher Scum merely exist in the gutters and river banks of East Tennessee. He contributes nothing to society other than the three chord smut he calls music, which even he admits isn’t much.
In Dayton, Ohio he was born into the midst of a rain and hail storm. The day the little bundle of joy was brought home from the hospital his father took one look at
the lump of shit presented before him a split. He left, going to California to put as much distance between him and the bastard he had created.
Scum hit the ground swinging and was picked up by police the first time at 3 years old for riding his big wheel around an open manhole, then again at five for setting a vacant lot across the street from his house on fire. These things he can be heard loudly bragging about today. Diagnosed as hyperactive and slapped on Ritalin, then taken off Ritalin and slapped in the head growing up was a long journey for him. He wrote his first song at 9 yrs. Old, proving truth stranger than fiction it and literally predicting the future it was called the Damn Jail Cell. By 15 he hitchhiked to East TN. Where he started playing bass in hard Rock and Later Punk rock bands, None of them worth mentioning.
Taking a serious love for the drink and other reality dodging vices Scum found a second home in the damn jail cells he had written about years before. Living in a blackout, being bounced from bar after bar Scum was often seen carrying an acoustic guitar and a tattered notebook in which he scribbled his immature profanities. The guitar had carvings deep into the back body which read JUNKIE: Please don’t pawn, among other profanities sure to keep it out of the pawn shop. Truth being Scum was too weak with his addictions that he couldn’t keep it out of hock.
These days he’s Singer bassist for Hard Rock Band The Dirty Works and still records his acoustic scribbles when given the opportunity.
Recently dear friend and accomplished musician/engineer Carl Snow took Scum under his wing recording 14 of Scum’s songs. His sister Delinda L. contributed the art work/photography his father (step father not the runaway bio dad) did all the artistic layout and both parents chipped in to have the CD Fifty Acres of Pain made up. Some of the tracks above are from this CD.
If You enjoy them, so be it.
All in all, Christopher Scum is a disease.
The Dirty Works Biscuits and Liquor is still available at CD Baby
Just Press..
I’m constantly working on new stuff for both projects. The Dirty Works will have a CD out by spring. (We Hope)

it still flatters me...everytime i come to your page and i see myself on your top friends. = ] It just makes me feel pure awesomeness even if its just that moment.
I can do that. I'll really listen to Been Gone a lotta times and get the flow of it so I can make a verse fit.... I think on sister scum it should go like this:
Chris: Sister Scum, what have you done? Sister Scum, what have you done?
Leigh: I've done nothing at all...
and so forth, you know the song. That way it'd be like you asking the questions and I'll play the role of the sister.
I'll have a verse by the middle of this week sometime, though, and I'll msg it to ya.
I heard it on YouTube. Good tune, either way. Finished or not. Haha... I haven't heard from Elvis, don't know what's up. I had to sign with another label here locally but I'll still help Pint out if I can ever heard from Elvis!
I'm doing pretty good. I can't complain too much, currently...
... I know how ya feel there. There are some shows I play and afterwards I think, "why bother?" I felt that way, most recently, in Fayetteville, NC. I played my set and sure I was the only ONE PERSON act on a bill full of metal bands but I just felt no one GOT IT and I questioned all sorts of things... did I play well? was it ME? was it THEM? Finally I just said, I love music and yet, sometimes the shit you have to deal with sucks, but overall, it's worth it.
With my blues band, I play the same few haunts all the time and get little response, but it pays... I know the feelin' well. But yer music kicks all kinds of ass, Chris, so don't let it get ya TOO down!
ok didn't miss murder junkies - it's Wed. Ur page is janked & I couldn't send an e-mail. Get ahold - may be able to get u some radio play here in Peoria (yeah I know - wooofuckinhoo). Will be hitting the kenocore scene in Kenosha, WI for Halloween (my b-day).
