"It's almost as if [White Bitch] believes every single [White Bitch] song needs to employ every single thing that [White Bitch] has the capacity to do—there needs to be a soft part, a hard part, a falsetto stretch, some piano plinking, some R&B bullshit, a little Judas Priest, subhuman sound effects, a few Robert Plant yowls, dolphin squeaks, wind, overt sentimentality, and a caustic modernization of the blues." - by famous author Chuck Klosterman (though that's actually his review of G-n-R's Chinese Democracy; it's just so eerily close to how White Bitch thinks of his own music)
The White Bitch playing a SMOKIN hot version of "Creamy Daemon" at VooDoo Music Experience 2008:
The White Bitch is often a sketchy one-man-electro-rock-n-r&b-band, a wild guitarist, feral singer and expert drum-programmer who has opened for TVontheRadio (thrice!), Of Montreal, Trans Am, The MakeUp, Girl Talk, Elf Power, Thrones, The Fucking Champs (twice!), Dalek, Quintron, Isis, Needs New Body, Tilly and the Wall and gosh, so many I can't remember... When The White Bitch records -- or else plays in a venue thats cavernous size ruins the sound of the mini-disk on which his beats are stored -- he utilizes talented and open-minded New Orleans musicians (see 'band members').
The songs offered here comprise the only good recordings EVER MADE of The White Bitch in his 15-years as a performing musician, AKA, The White Bitch's first EVER album The White Bitch's Prey Drive, OUT NOW!!!!! It's not on Itunes just yet, so write to us here if you want a CD for $5; the cover art, by Ratty Scurvics, is beautiful...
PS> The White Bitch is also a widely published writer, journalist and author. Read his stuff here!
I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
"The most ancient Greek account of the creation of the vine that has been preserved is that given by Pausanias (X, 38): how in the time of Orestheus son of Deucalion a white bitch littered a stick which he planted and which grew into a vine. The white bitch is obviously the Triple Goddess again..."
