Artist description Have you wanted to strangle the jack-ass who sends you spam? The Spam Avnger stops short of violence. He does, however, track down spammers on the phone and gets revenge with satire and surrealism. Becuase he's a decent bloke, he lets regular folk listen to his work so they might feel as though someone is working for bettering the planet. Oh yeah, he's an eel.

Press Reviews "I’ve yet to meet anyone who approves of spamming, the equivalent of obnoxious billboards on the information superhighway. This secretive Spam Avenger character takes his contempt for bulk e-mailing to a pathological extreme. Vengeance is his as he rings up firms that deal in spam and subjects their reps to gruelling and humiliating routines. The approach is Jerky Boys, the delivery is somewhere between Steven Wright and Son of Sam—the Avenger’s surreal, off-his-meds requests (claiming to be a professional eel impersonator, for instance) are punctuated by hilarious stretches of awkward silence. Man, you can cut the tension with a knife at points. For the full picture, go to www. thespamavenger.com. 8/10" - Rupert Bottenberg, Montreal Mirror, Nov. 14, 2002
