Hyphenated-Man

“Hyphenated-Man” is the fourth solo album by Mike Watt, and the first full-length recording he made under his own name since parting with Columbia Records in 2005. He is accompanied on the album by guitarist Tom Watson and drummer Raul Morales.

It is a punk opera of thirty short songs, all two minutes or under (most average about a minute and a half) inspired by creatures from the paintings of Hieronymous Bosch. Each of the thirty song titles is derived from a nickname Watt came up with for each creature, “since I don’t know three-hundred-year-old Dutch”.

This is the rare yellow vinyl version, as good as new!
