On December 8th the Living Legends member is releasing a new project that sounds like it’s going to be quite refreshing…
In today’s maniacally fast paced and highly interconnected digital world filled with 140 character updates, constant availability, and staggering voyeurism it is easy to become overwhelmed. However, this winter, The Grouch is taking his eyes off the rat race and urges his listeners to join him as he unplugs and reconnects himself to the physical and spiritual worlds. The Grouch offers, “What I’m trying to say with the title is that, I’m well aware of what’s going on in the world around me, and I too utilize all the tools available, but I will no longer participate at the level of foolishness that has become the norm. I think it’s time people get in tune with how powerful we really are.”
The quote above mirrors some of my exact thoughts as of late. Hit the jump for the tracklist…

05 The Dangers of Online Dating

The Grouch is always dope, and I hope he doesn’t stray too far off with this one.
Society has already fallen off the deep end, I think it would be impossible for everyone to “unplug and reconnects themselves to the physical and spiritual worlds.” There will be a large group of those who will follow that advice, but most will continue their daily materialistic lives full of negativity and hate, unfortunately.
Can’t wait for this album!!
not with all that santanic all see-ing on his forehead, gets no play. God > Devil worshiping

A note about the artwork on his forehead: The painting was done by a frantic hippy who was in a rush to prepare for a rave she was helping put on. Besides the concept of the eye, Grouch had no further input on it. Also, being pressed for time deadline wise, there would have been no chance for a re-do. Much as water goes with the tide, Grouch went along with what he was given to work with. Perhaps not exactly what he had planned for. However, the black lines did remind him of bull horns, which worked out nicely given that Grouch is a Taurus. No devil intentions here. The Grouch is only evil on the mic.
nice
