Born in Hawaii, RSM has spent his adult life in the Puget Sound section of the mainland and considers it home. What he's been up to lately though, has been somewhat of a mystery.
We know he toured the globe with Quigzystick, Omega and Honky KOs, respectively. We know he helped mount the Popcap flag on the top of the gameworld heap before fucking off back to Microsoft to invent Hologram. We know he took a lot of photos, edited a lot of video, keynoted conventions, started his own business, met and argued with a number of his idols, started a paper magazine, championed skateparks all over King County, and learned to love baseball.
The songs on Armaghetto 2 range in theme from monkeywrench eco-terrorism, ill-advised job quitting, and even Jesus’ culpability in this gummy fuckin’ mess. It’s a grim glimpse into the future, but in fine RSM fashion, he has left a sliver of dignity and even hope out for us. Not necessarily in plain
view—but it’s there for those who seek it.
RSM views his world through a custom lens. His perspective is uncomplicated, but not simple. Critical but not captious. Honest but not blunt. These angles come across in his art, nowhere more truly than in his music—and Armaghetto 2 might be the most-revealing document yet.
