One morning some time ago I sat down and spent an abnormally long time checking out the work of this Phil guy. That Phil guy being the one and only Phil Guy. Phil Guy, otherwise known as Some Guy, but commonly referred to as Burrito Breath, is feverishly blasting away behind his pen on a daily basis. What is he doing you ask? Well, to put it simply, he is creating all of the shit you wish you would have thought of. The handful of samples below doesn't even scratch the surface, so make sure to check out these links. Phil is one of the coolest and most solid fuckin' dudes I've had the pleasure of working with, but never meeting. That Phil guy, he's elusive like that.
Some Guy Design has allowed you to keep a level of mystery about what you actually look like. If you could describe yourself by comparison of famous people, what 2 famous faces would we need to combine to create an accurate bust of your head?
I try to keep my face outta the picture since I'm so handsome that it might distract from the work.....did I say handsome? I meant hideous...for sure hideous. If you had to combine two faces I'd say a nice mix jim carrey and toxic avenger would cover it.
I can smell your burrito breath from across the country. What do you have them put in your burritos?!
The breath is mightier than the sword haha..... I'm never too picky about my burritos but the essentials...always gotta make em super...extra guacamole.....extra cheese and extra spicy with a little tapatio in the mix. I'm not sure what's worse my breath or my farts....I think at somepoint this combo will liquify my intestines.
How bad is your sticker addiction on a scale of 1-10?
I've tried as much as I can to scale it back but I fuckin love stickers. Now that I'm making my own its even worse. As a kid I got started collecting stickers from my local bike shop....big thank you to Ernie's bikes! I'd say right now I'm at about a 7, but only because I'm kinda broke...when I've got extra cash the late night ebaying gets a little outta hand.
Whats with the 4 eyes?
Started out with a bottle opener I scored at the flea market. After lookin around a little I started seeing more and more four eyed dudes. I started a weird collection because I'm a junk hoarder...and before I knew it they worked their way into the drawings. It always looks rad and its fun to fuck around with.
Speaking of eyes... has Danzig called you in a frenzy about anything yet?
No word from Danzig yet or anyone else I've ripped off....although Doyle from the Misfits did see the 20 eyes shirt on Instagram and liked it so I'm stoked about that. I'd love for Danzig to show up at my apartment and start shit though. So if you read this Glenn I'm waitin!
Just so everyone can dance around like you do all day, which records are you spinning to reach maximum productivity?
One of my favorite bands is Torche so any of their shit will provide ample riffs for ass shaking and working. Also Fleetwood Mac's Tusk album is a killer. People might think I'm bullshitting with that last one but its true. Another good one to get some work cranked out is At the Gates Slaughter of the Soul....which also reminds me of one of my favorites of all time Carcass's Heartwork.
Ameoba records: Fair or Overpriced?
Everything in San Francisco is overpriced haha.....BUUUUT Amoeba is rad, and I don't blame anyone for shopping there....and I think you pay a little more for the experience than anything....and you can buy drugs right outside the front door, thats service!
What kind of Biltwell lid are you painting- any hints on what we can expect?
Stoked on the helmets for sure big thank you to Biltwell. I'm painting an open face Bonanza style helmet, trying to get kind weird with it. Lets just say I'm it involves glitter, and ten pounds of shit in a five pound bag.
WHAT A GUY! THANKS PHIL!
Here are some jams if you want to get a little bit closer to your burrito center:
