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.

Dirty Pants Lyrics

Smog

And so I dance in dirty pants
A drink in my hand
No shirt and broken tooth
Barefoot and beaming
The crowd is stomping
Stomping a song
For me to dance to
Break glass and give in
My head is springing
Blood ringing
So I walk down to the creek
And I slither in
I catch my breath
Icy cold
Then I walk out to your house
And let myself in
Back you into the corner
And I multiply
I could toll endlessly
Into the bottomless night
God does not answer this type of prayer
