Charlie McAlister Download mp3 | Stream mp3
Home taping legend (the man is quite literally insanely prolific), artist, swamp thing, and master of the Dixie hula, Charlie McAlister phones it in from Charleston, SC. A spiritual successor to Hasil Adkins, Charlie comes from the same home taping scene that birthed other greats like Simon Joyner, Franklin Bruno, and the Mountain Goats. Cacophonous banjo cel phone pop songs and disturbing, hallucinogenic poetry. Eat it alive and swallow it whole. What the hell was happening over there? Incredible.
