I am in the night I am every part of it The consumption of its beast The deck that it deals The veins that bleed The caress of its serpent I am the night As it writhes and undulates toward dawn It moans and cries a symphony of anger I am its agony as it struggles against the light And dies with the strike of the Sun God.

HENRY ROLLINS
Subject's full name : Henry Rollins
Date of birth: february 13, 1961
Address: P.O. BOX 2461
  REDONDO BEACH, CA, 90278
Aliases/Nicknames : Henrietta Collins, Hank, Rollins

Influences: HR from bad brains, Chuck Dukowsky, Greg, my parents, Friedrich Nietzche, Colonel Walter E. Curtz and Captain Williard (Apocalypse Now). "I think you end up like Kurtz at the end - in some dark room waiting for the end. Some people just really exhaust all their synapses -they take things to the end, happiness, sadness, everything, and then the end of the line. Everything influences you, leaves an imprint -good times, bad times - damages influences me. Being alive is my biggest influence - not being a corpse."
Dave's Comments:

This is an unusual compilation style disc from Europe. The collection of artists here is pretty interesting (Butthole Surfers, Sylvia Juncosa, Naked Prey, Shock Therapy, Savage Republic, Drowning Pool, Shiva Burlesque, Colorblind James Experience, Eugene Chadbourne, Red Temple Spirits, Ritual Tension, Rollins Band [billed simply as Henry Rollins], and Camper Van Chadbourne).

Choosing GUN IN MOUTH BLUES as a track to include on a compilation disc is pretty bold in my opinion: GUN IN MOUTH BLUES is heavyweight stuff! The version featured here is the same as the one found on DO IT.
