Todd Smith is a God

Todd Smith and I after a Polkadot Cadaver show in Charlotte NC.

I have a few artists that I am completely obsessed with and Todd Smith is one of them. Everything he creates is gold. He definitely doesn't get the credit that he deserves as an artist or vocalist. He is a part of  four bands and has a solo project. The bands are Dog Fashion Disco, Polkadot Cadaver, Knives Out!, and The Alter Boys. His solo work is called El-Creepo. Dog Fashion Disco is no longer together. Every couple of years, they get together in Baltimore, Maryland to do a reunion show that usually lasts for two days. 

Honestly, it is hard for me to explain the sound of these bands. All of them are very unique and original, which is very hard to come by these days. So I'm going to add some videos to this post and links to their Facebook pages. If you are open-minded, please take the time to check out all five videos. I promise, it is worth it.
