My Pet Martyr
Current Score: ★☆☆☆☆ ☆☆
Biography:
In a climate where an artists work is cheap and singer/songwriters are summarily shut down like obsolete machines, My Pet Martyr not only bravely embraces these roles; he redefines them. Over the years this prolific wordsmith and composer has given the world quite an impressive catalog of challenging yet graceful material. At the heart of all Rikio's work lies a need to explore the art, himself and the world around him as he sees it, regardless of popular opinions or trends. Whether the topics are whimsical, mournful, angsty or simply exercises of will, the songs never come off as contrived or formulaic and are always presented with honesty and steadfast integrity. Crass yet witty, brutal yet tender Rikio Matsunaga Foster is a unique artist who truly is cynically charming.
