Smog Picture
Bill Callahan, born in Silver Spring, Maryland. Callahan pioneered the lo-figenre of underground rock, with homemade tape-albums recorded on four track tape recorders. Later he signed a record contract with the label drag city. Callahan started out as a highly experimentalartist, utilizing sub-standard instruments and recording equipment. His reason for using the lo-fi approach was not so much an aesthetic choice, rather it came from his lack of knowledge of recording studios, and fear of giving up control to professional engineers.

A Hit Lyrics

Smog

It's not going to be a hit
So why even bother with it?
It's not going to be a hit
So why even bother with it?
Just lay it down, and forget about it
Lay it down fast, forget about it
I'll never be a rock and roll saint
I'll never be a rock and roll saint
'Cause i can't sing
Oh no i can't sing
That's not the only reason
That's not the only reason
I'll never be a bowie
I'll never be an eno
I'll never be a bowie
I'll never be an eno
I'll only ever be a gary numan
I'll never be a rock and roll saint
