Baltimore's guitarist and vocalist George Brigman unleashed a hellish dose of distorted blues-rock on his debut album, Jungle Rot (Solid, 1975 - Anopheles, 2005), that was soon forgotten. Nuclear-waste guitar licks fueled restive dirges in the vein of the Stooges.

A single, Blowin Smoke/ Drifting (Solid, 1977), a cassette, I Can Hear the Ants Dancin' (1982 - Or, 1995), an EP, Silent Bones (Bona Fide, 1985), and the album Human Scrawl Vagabond (Resonance, 1986), that contained songs from Silent Bones and I Can Hear the Ants Dancin' as well as some new songs, closed his major career.
