   About dead or american
The origin of the universe occurred about 14 billion years ago. After 9.5 billion years, the earth coalesced and life subsequently began, probably as bacteria deep within rocks.

Around 4.5 billion years later, dead or american got together and started playing music.

Fucking hell, thats evolution for you...

Songs are sounding not too shabby, an even more impressive accomplishment seening as you bass player is a big raging pansy and Chris likes the feeling of silk PJ's after an aromatic bath and leg shave. Ha!

I'm just Kindding, you guys are swell.
