Sounds LikeIf Bob Dylan had a mohawk and his best friend was Charles Bukowski, then they would drink together and find a woman that they could have a threesome with.

"....this record is one of 2006's most criminally overlooked albums.."
     -Amplifier Magazine

"....It's not necessarily rollicking and boisterous, but it ain't coffee bar nickel and diming either. I find that middle-ground between front porch hollerin, tang, and tussle and more restrained, down on the hip corner, cigarette on the couch vibe."
     -Left of the Dial Magazine

"....Guitar Bomb is fortunately a damn fine one-man band. Rifling through the massive ..ation of blues-punk, Guitar Bomb utilizes a drum machine and an electric hollow body guitar. His sneering vocals speak of crafty clever lyrical wit. Raunchy guitar noise gleans well over the melodic down-home blues riffs. You may remember his band The Don't Stop—if not you should damn it...."
     -Smother . net

"....Down and dirty Brooklyn guitarist with an ear to the street – this one man show will blow you away without ever getting out of his seat. Guitar pickin' good, whiskey soaked gorgeous vocals, a real back alley cat at heart."
     -New York Waste

"....A one man band playing punk rock blues that reaches into your gut and messes up your insides. The sort of sound that makes you want to sit in a dark room smoking cigarettes. Rebellion – the good old-fashioned way."
     -Stranger Magazine UK

"....He's more blues than Hasel Adkins, more melodic than Scott H. Biram but each of their instruments have been schooled in that good old, grungy garage sound. On “Back Alley Jesus” this simplicity is anything but simple."
     -Independents Only

"....Guitar Bomb sounds like he's devoured the history of his genre, and cooked up a formidable songbook, easily balancing the rage of punk with the passion of the blues, both in equal measures of intelligence and arrogance."
    -Jersey Beat

     While drunkand dour a man decides that is best to lift himself from the ahses of his failure and to create a new god for himself.  He decides that it is time to smash his idols and to revolt against the forces that claim his origin.  So he buys a 50 dollar guitar and spray paints gunshot wounds and flames across the exterior.  He cracks another pint of whiskey and reads some Bukowski while spinning a Stooges record on the turntable.  By the end of the night he has written a few cranky blues tunes and plugs his guitar into the stereo and pretends to sing like Tom Waites.  The next thing you know, he's driving around the country in a gold mini-van with tinted windows.  He's driving to the next show where he will be singing rowdy sonnets to drunkards and strange women in forgotten cities.  But before surpassing the brink of self destruction and careening into the horizon, he slams his brakes to pick up a lone hitchhicker on the road to nowhere.  The traveller is a grisly fella with a heart of gold and an unwavering desire for all that is possible.  In his eyes one can't miss noticing the battle between control and chaos.  He hops in the van and says, "keep goin' this way 'till we can't go no more, and when you get to the end, pretend that we just started.  Don't stop for nothin'."

     Originally conceived as a one man band, Guitar Bomb has evolved into a two piece combo of guitar, drums and vocals.  For their upcoming release, "Happy Hour At The Silverado", this genre crossing duo is dedicated to delivering punk rock credibility to the blues.  If there is a single act that can tip its cap to the old delta Mississippi players of the 30's and shake a fist with the punks of the 70's and thrash with the head bangers of the 80's, it is Guitar Bomb.  With their fair share of touring throughout the US and Canada one can expect to see or hear more about this act.

Hello Guitar Bomb. 
You've been absolute dicks to us. Lets be honest. But its that disdain that's fueled our drive. You've inspired us to take great strides in our musical pursuit. This is our debut music video. We do this in spite of you. 
We'll see you at Pabstolutely. But we won't be like it.
