IF YOU"RE TIRED OF CAPITALIST,ELITIST,ILLUMINATI COCKSUCKERS RUNNING AND RUINING YOUR COUNTRY, PLEASE READ UP ON RON PAUL, THE ONLY REAL MAN IN THE RUNNING.
Hello to all Earth's people, even the assholes. My name is Justin Owen Griffin.
I got my start in the music scene in the late nineties at the age of about sixteen playing local and not so local pubs in the greater chicagoland area. I've been through many musical adventures, the longest and most rewarding being the one I still emark on to this day with my band Stellar Road. I'm a being of artistry stuffed into this fast paced, cut throat, war mongering, wage slaving social structure, making my living and housing me and my mrs. with a job in one of the the finest union outfits in Chicago, local 17. Through the trauma of the average work day, I use all of my physical senses to record and analyse the world and people around me, wich I chose to dispense through the gift of music and song. I am an average man with two eyes and ears set to filter out bullshit and extract some truth from the estranged world around me. In the early months of 2007 I saw a bad ass band rocking w/ a friend of mine and knew that they would be up to the challenge of rocking on my debut solo album. After a short time, they exceeded my expectations and proved to be more than perfect for the album. So we recorded that album, and it ruled. The purpose of this page is to give those songs to you; that is all. please enjoy.
