Being an independent artist with no shame and a keen sense of humor, Brant Bjork took the term Punk Rock Guilt and simply let it represent his personal Rock-n-Roll freedom. “This record is the shit…and it was worth the wait…for me and you”.

Brant Bjork hails from Palm Desert, California, where he began gigging at the age of 13. By high school Brant had begun Kyuss with locals Josh Homme, Chris Cockrell, (later Nick Oliveri) and John Garcia.

‘Punk Rock Guilt’ was recorded and produced by long time friend, Dave Raphael, in his fully analog basement studio. Brant and Dave agreed that the sonic direction of the recording should be full-on R-O-C-K. The session began with a hand full of riffs, an arsenal of premium tequilas and whiskies, as well as other creative condiments. Dave Raphael rolled 2 inch tape and Brant, in his classic session style, performed all instrumentation on the spot and arranged 90% of the songs while actually in the studio. ‘Punk Rock Guilt’ is a very direct, no-frills rock’n’roll record and upon mastering the recording, the highly respected engineer, Dave Collins, personally expressed to Brant that the record sounded like it was recorded in 1971. For both Brant and Dave Raphael, mission accomplished!
