Artist History ArsoNick Scum began with a guitar and an AC/DC tablature book. He progressed into a guitarist for a hardcore punk band (Drunk). Then to a rock n' roll punk guitarist/strange home music recorder (Suburban Sluts/Traditional Yellow Mustard). ArsoNick then split in to two personalities... Blue Bonnet Plague (county/blues influenced Jimi Hendrix punk stressing the improvised noise jam) and ArsoNick Scum (one man's thoughts, both verbally and musically, on 4-track).ArsoNick Scum went from being a very angry punk rock virgin to being a more mature (intellectually, socially and emotionally)love machine, making pop-like songs that reflect the confusion, frustration and gospel of young man growing up and deciding whether to be a jerk or fool.

Group Members ArsoNick Scum: vocals, guitar and programming... everything else on the studio material.

Instruments Whatever is around.

Albums "Hi, I Live in Normal" "19 Piece Bucket of Scum" "I Like Your Panties"
