Billy Synth

From a 1980 Sordide Sentimental 7", comes Billy Synth's beautifully inept "Hartzdale Drive Destruction" featuring a one note bass line, oscilating synth, and confused and meandering shouted vocals. Over the years Billy Synth has led other bands such as The Turn-ups and The Windowpaynes.

Like Mike Rep, one of those "old" guys that is more important than anyone really knows.

Oh. My. Gawd. This is the most wonderful song I have heard in a long time. I must leave now and obsess over finding a copy of it.
