I had a chance to talk with one of the most underrated artists of the past 15 years, the front man for the rock band Everclear, Art Alexakis. Everclear just released, for FREE, a new single called “Jesus Was a Democrat” and you could imagine the controversy to follow considering what is coming up in less than a week. And just look at the artwork for it below!

The controversy though gave me and Art a chance to talk about things that we don’t usually cover here in the Geek Stuff Unlimited Universe.

Besides the controversy surrounding the single, we chatted about general politics, religion, American culture, Everclear’s future, and the music industry in general. And it wouldn’t be Geek Stuff Unlimited if I didn’t work in video games a little bit.
