This Is What It Sounds Like Inside My Head
JG Thirlwell, AKA Jim Foetus, AKA Clint Ruin, etc. He's been doing weird, cool music for longer than I've been alive, doing everything from playing with Nick Cave and Lydia Lunch to doing DJ sets these days. You can tell how absurdly talented he is by the fact that the CD of his soundtrack work for The Venture Bros. (One of the better, funnier things on TV) that I just got with my Blu-Ray copy ...
