WELCOME TO DOOM TOWN words & collages by iBRAHIM dEATHRAY is a walk on the fucked up side, a season in purgatory, a car crash in slo-mo, a descent into no salvation and coming out alive, kicking and madder than ever. ex-alcoholic bicycle riding punk poet workingman environmental activist ibrahim deathray takes you on a tour around doom town. he rides his mountain bike across back roads rice fields forests and asphalt, chugs colt 45 extra strong malt liquor in seedy bars, chinese restaurants and street corners, reads schopenhauer the bhagavat-gita and dostoevsky, works 8-5 monday-friday, all the while tirelessly talking to people and politicians about the environment. at times funny, mad, sad, angry, savage, surreal his writing flows with the subversive rhythms of his musical heroes from coltrane to black flag to burial and kode9 and the spaceape to gundula janowitz singing strauss' vier letzte lieder to tom ze and young marble giants to the velvet underground to miles davis to eyehategod to jaqueline du pre and everything in between. here too are his collages that angered you, repulsed you, made you laugh, grabbed you by the throat. THIS IS A HANDSOME EDITION OF HIS FIRST COLLECTION just not as handsome as he is though. welcome to doom town. but you're already in it. mr. deathray lives in Laguna, Philippines.
