Daryl Palumbo A to Z
Posted: Tuesday, May 23rd, 2006 in Daryl Palumbo and Head Automatica and Glassjaw and Side Projects and Cardboard City and House of Blow and MP3 Downloads and Brite One | Post a Comment
Weeks ago I stumbled upon something pretty interesting, informative, and overall awesome. In turn I was inspired to create my own.
A blog called All Things Go posted an “A to Z” of Sufjan Stevens and oddly enough, the author was inspired via another blog! How rad! So let’s keep this little idea going with an artist you are into yeah? Click here to see Sufjan Steven’s A to Z.
Anyways, mine is of (of course) Daryl Palumbo. Here you will find some MP3’s and some general information you may not know about Mr. Palumbo. Of course to the die-harders… it’s doubful you will find anything new. But hey, you may know something I dont so post it in the comments.
Enjoy.
A is for Anglophile and for Ape Dos Mil (right click and save) a single off of their second album: Worship and Tribute
B is for Beat Scientific (right click and save) an old, now inactive and incomplete side project. Also, Brite One, DP’s rapping name

So that’s about it… haha. I hope you’ve learned something out of this post! Of course, I could add tons more (such as F for Finch and others) to other letters but I wanted to truncate as much of the information as possible.
Stayed tuned… I still got something big coming up.
Thoughts? Comments? Errors? Additions? Post them below!

this was pretty amazing! thanks for posting it!
Q=queer…constant rumors of daryl’s sexuality and his relations with other bandmates…also an on going joke on the gj forums
haha i cant think of anything else either!! thought that was kinda funny though
right-click and saved
May 23rd, 2006 at 1:43 pm
I think the word “Quintessential” is what Q should be. I’m sure we can all give a reason why.
May 23rd, 2006 at 3:24 pm
Q is for questions. daryl always answers them. (yea it’s dumb,but it’s something)
anyway good job, you really hit all the marks with this.
May 23rd, 2006 at 7:25 pm
THIS IS REALLY COOL!
May 23rd, 2006 at 7:48 pm
Q is for Queens - ex Glassjaw guitarist Todd Weinstock’s hometown.
It isn’t EXACTLY DP related, but I hope this points you to new directions for “Q” :)
May 23rd, 2006 at 10:18 pm
“U is for United Nations, a grindcore side porject with DP, Geoff of Thursday and others. No music has been materialized to date.”
whats a PORJECT. HAHAHAHAHA!
oh yeah…
Q is for “quotes,” in refference to Daryl’s loose quoting of other artists’ works in, Glassjaw’s sophomore record, Worship & Tribue.
there. i tried.
May 24th, 2006 at 4:16 am
very informative info about the man himself!!
so many of the songs i haven’t heard….& i’m about to listen to!!
I’m glad to here he’s not straight edge anymore though…
May 24th, 2006 at 8:40 am
Cool post. Thanks for the extra tracks in there. Was nexlev pre decadence? Did you ever end up getting the full pre-surgical testing/post-surgical testing cds?
May 24th, 2006 at 8:45 am
You Do…did you get anything else with that?
May 24th, 2006 at 8:45 am
awesome freaking post + i voted for you on headautomatica.com :)
May 24th, 2006 at 8:47 am
also, letter E:”debut album on a major album” should be “on a major label”.
May 24th, 2006 at 8:51 am
I like the Q is for Quotations, as in quoting influences on W&T.
May 24th, 2006 at 5:40 pm
Q is for the Quickness, Daryl’s favorite Bad Brains album.
May 25th, 2006 at 6:56 am
q is for queer because bright even said he was bisexual. hooray. :)
May 25th, 2006 at 1:32 pm
thanks for all the info! i dig it!!
May 26th, 2006 at 5:42 pm
MP3’s YAY! I knew he was a side project kind of guy, but JESUS! That’s a lot for a guy already as busy as him.
I would say I love you but there are people who would kill me for doing that.
June 7th, 2006 at 4:56 pm
trish, its “brite” not “bright”
June 9th, 2006 at 3:29 pm
no, it’s both. His Tmail acount says “metal face bright'’ and his ex girlfriend sarah also says it’s bright. I’ve gotten into debates over this before lmao. i swear it’s both.
June 23rd, 2006 at 10:52 am
Q is for “que sorra” which is a lyric from “two tabs of mescaline” from Worship and Tribute, which I have no idea what that line means.
June 23rd, 2006 at 10:53 am
oops “que sera”
July 13th, 2006 at 9:09 am
i would just really like to know about DP’s love life because he never says anything about it. sometime i hear he’s married, other times i hear he was like forever scarred by some evil girl, and sometimes i hear nothing at all. someone fill me in because i love DP.
July 24th, 2006 at 5:08 am

August 11th, 2006 at 9:33 am
S is for SilentMajority which is an old band of daryl’s. He does some backup vocals for the band on their latest releases.
August 30th, 2006 at 3:17 pm
“que sera” litarally means “what will be” but itcan also mean “what is it” if meant as a question.A little useless info :).
October 17th, 2006 at 6:32 pm
X is for xbustedx, one of daryl’s first bands
October 26th, 2006 at 5:06 am
s is for sifta my band fuckers
October 29th, 2006 at 9:05 pm
thank you fo the great DP site :) i love his perception of love… and the songs on your page are great :) much love!
October 31st, 2006 at 9:35 am
Q is for “quite the stud muffin”.
let’s face it, the man’s sexy as hell.
and although it’s a shame he’s “bi” (and leaning towards men, i’ve been told) it makes things not so bad on the jealousy issue.
but i like “que sera” a lot.
(that happens to be one of my favorite lines)
GAH! i want his babies so bad.
October 31st, 2006 at 12:47 pm
this is awesome…more mp3’s to add to my DP collection!
November 23rd, 2006 at 5:19 pm
Awesome job. I love the DL’s and all the nifty facts. “Q” for KQED? I’m out of ideas.
November 27th, 2006 at 12:56 am
hey wirez,
you should update the house of blow entry, i think there already is an mp3 (i mean, you were the one who ripped the version i downloaded).
but in this case i have a question. on their myspace page the song is called “Afghani Black”, but the filename has no H. Did they change the song name later (after you ripped it) or was it just a mistake of yours?
November 28th, 2006 at 7:09 am
Q is for Queen Bee from, Golgo 13 an anime favorite of Daryl Palumbo, but more importantly the Quickness, Daryl’s favorite Bad Brains album. He also sang backing vocals on a cover of Bad Brains’, Gene Machine with Alien Ant Farm.
December 21st, 2006 at 9:15 pm
omgosh, DP galore! i love you!
quintessential is a good one for “Q” because we all know that DP is a god! purest of all pureness.
“Q” could also be “quickie” from “My blow goes like a quickie in the snow,” lyrics from Stuck Pig. xP lovin’ it.
December 22nd, 2006 at 4:56 pm
