Description: In an effort to judge Mike Watt's third ''opera'' on it's own merits, one may try to put aside everything he has done over his career. This is not only a disservice to the man, but is, quite frankly, an impossible task.The man is a legend and his output over the years (The Minutemen, fIREHOSE, three solo efforts, and currently with Iggy and the Stooges), has not only influenced several generations, but also helped to create and maintain an entire music scene.Twenty-six years after The Minutemen's landmark Double Nickels on the Dime, Watt returns to the familiar punk and jazz influenced sound he and his band made famous. This time, it's more refined and more mature without lacking any of the energy or urgency of yesteryear.Hyphenated-Man features thirty songs in 47 minutes with Watt on bass, his deep baritone singing melodies and reciting spoken word while the Missingmen (Raul Morales and Tom Watson) wail on drums and guitar.Add to all of this a special redrawn cover by legendary artist Raymond Pettibon and you've got an album worthy of the history that led up to it.* Original cover art by the legendary Raymond Pettibon* LP: High quality European pressed vinyl* LP: Digital Download of the entire record included in lossless formats* ''no filler, right to point and distilled down to the bare nada.'' mike watt
