Biography
These tracks showcase the Northern California guitarist's latest solo venture with an array of varied styles and occasional offbeat aural atrocities.

Previous bands performed with (and founded) include the Sacramento-based glam rock band Sergeant Rocks, in which at one time also included guitarist George Lynch (Dokken, Lynch Mob) and "Wild" Mick Brown. (Dokken, Lynch Mob, Ted Nugent) Others performed with include Banger, Patricia Hurts and Man-aze.

Several past major musical influences include Jeff Beck, Frank Zappa (Mothers era), synthesist composer Jean Michel Jarre, Mick Ronson, Mick Taylor and McNugget.

All instrumentation (elec. and electro-acoustic guitars, bass, keys, synths) on these particular tracks were written, arranged, performed and engineered by Erik Darzell with comrade Randy Petty belting out the sick lead vocals on "A Day Late" and "Knock 'em Down".

All background vocals, inane dialog and assorted noise distractions by E.D., including lead vocals on "Be Patient, Eddie".

The tracks "Hope She Dies" and "Not Very Funny" (the last "byte" on "Up Chunks") are original guitar soundtrack compositions that were written and performed for the indie movie titled "Hope She Dies Before I Wake".
