I have recently gotten into writing and recording my own music.  I have no prior background in music but have been working on a website/app called BandLab to do my music creating.  It is meant to be humorous and lighthearted, much like my art.  I started my own "record label," "Frog With Hat Productions."  I have made eight full albums and had a lot more fun than doing painting. I also make my own CDs which are for sale.  They include full art and insert with a colorful printed CD.  They are $12 each including shipping.  Email me if interested.

Discography Of All My Full-Length Music Albums:
Billy Bob Allen And The Manure Spreaders,      "Friday Night Bingo"   
​
This Is my debut music album. Having never had any prior music background, making this album was how I learned how to do any music recording, editing or playing.  I started out with vocalized "guitars" and was eventually given a one-string guitar made from a coffee-can.  Lyrics are spoken, because singing is lame.  This was meant to be a joke album but people liked it anyway.
BUTT FUDGE,       "VISINE DEW"

My second album, with a "Grunge" inspired musical theme.  Now with more guitars, including some toy Dollar-Tree plastic guitars and a two-string guitar with real frets on it for more advanced playing.  I started to use distortion effects for a heavier sound...and some more offensive lyrical content to please the younger crowd for which this is aimed...Rock On Dudes!  This also has some progressive elements in it.
Billy Bob Allen and The Maure Spreaders,     "The Gambler"

My third album is finally where I get a real electric guitar and an amp...although I still use the toy guitars.  This album also incorporates a greater use of digital drums and other instruments, including a mouth harp.  I also started to really expand my sound into Blues and some more expanded progressive elements.  I also used Artificial Intelligence for a poppy song.  There are lots of potty humor references.
 Murky BlackWater,   "Toilet Safety"

This is my fourth album, now with some former "members" having combined into this "Supergroup."  This is where I put it all together at last and really try to give the album a more finished sound.  I tried my hand at a lot of different sounds and styles, ranging to Blues, Rock, Rap, Folk, Pop and Guitar Hero Instrumental.  There is still a lot of potty humor in this album.  My guitar playing is more proficient than before.​   
   
Vunderslousch Magoo and Guy Gizmo,
"Zillion Year Rain"

This is an experimental instrumental concept album and is about two guys going back in time to chronicle the distant past in musical form.  Layers of guitar playing, and keyboard embellishments create as rich atmosphere of sound.  Has a nice progressive rock feel to it and has a lot of variety to the instruments.  Sounds better with age after repeated listening.
Murky BlackWater,   
"The Persistent Odor Of Cows"

My Sixth album is my most progressive album yet.  There are longer songs and more instrumental passages.  Lyrics are also less humorous, but some humor remains. There are spacey and atmospheric parts and even some animal noises.  This is less accessible than pop or hit orientated music...with some very random and futuristic drumming patterns.   New guitars were also used.
Vunderslousch Magoo and Guy Gizmo+
"Obsolete Free Energy Machine"

This instrumental progressive rock concept album is the sequel to "Zillion Year Rain," with two special guests...Skeeter Bob Bob and The Blastmaster. Featuring futuristic guitar and keyboard playing in wild and free form compositions.  In this album, the guys go into the future to chronicle their time travels into musical form.  This is not easy listening or for those who like lame music.
Futt Budge, "Clunkedelic"

My 8th album is a Grunge Rock Fusion album with an experimental, jazzy free-time feel to it.  I used a blend of both real guitar and toy guitars, and used real drum sounds and also knocking on various things for percussion.  It uses a lot of heavy guitar distortion.  Does use some offensive words and topics.  This was the sequel to my Butt Fudge album but had to change the name.
Frog With Hat Special Edition,
"Livin' B-Sides an Inbred"

This is a compilation album consisting of
reject tracks, alternate takes, and songs
from albums which were left abandoned.
It has several instrumentals and has some experimental projects which use new techniques and procedures.  Ranges in style from pop, rock, Classical and Americana.  Does contain some sh!t songs.
