Billy Bunks - Spit & Gristle
Billy Bunks was raised on lager and that good nineties
rap. A grimy creep from the briney deep, he's a foul
rap drunk, and in his own words "superhumanly
talented". Lithe and rank, the known Booze Bastard
and notorious Hired Goon wields old fashioned proper
microphone styles with a practiced absence of sobriety.
Often seen on street benches with longnecks, Bunks
is as sturdy and creaky as a weathered old galleon.
His debut solo album features the (s)hit single "Devil's
Clay", "Hookers", "Strumpets" and
11 other antisocial anthems. Spit & Gristle finds
Billy Bunks at his best while doing his worst. Consider
yourselves warned.
