Manny Charlton - "Doom" / "Blood On The Walls"

"Doom" / "Blood On The Walls"

In 1995 Charlton sent to id Software, creator of Doom, a cassette tape featuring an untitled song that John Romero would later title "Blood on the Walls". The liner said "For all the guys and gals at I.D. (sic) who came up with the coolest game this side of hell, kick some demon butt to this!!" It also said "Distribute as shareware", in keeping with the old days of PC gaming in which one could get the first third or fourth of the game for free or a reduced price, and buy the full game later. Romero would later find this tape in his things, and record it to mp3, providing it for free on his website.

The song is actually titled "Doom" from Charlton's album Drool.

in 2012 Manny signed to GB Records out of Los Angeles and teamed up with bass legend Tim Bogert and drum icon Walfredo Reyes Jr and new comer Robin De Lorenzo to create a new record called, "Hellacious".

Famous quotes containing the words doom, blood and/or walls:

    My doom and my strength is to be solitary.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    On fields all drenched with blood he made his record in war, abstained from lawless violence when left on the plantation, and received his freedom in peace with moderation. But he holds in this Republic the position of an alien race among a people impatient of a rival. And in the eyes of some it seems that no valor redeems him, no social advancement nor individual development wipes off the ban which clings to him.
    Frances Ellen Watkins Harper (1825–1911)

    The walls that fence our fields, as well as modern Rome, and not less the Parthenon itself, are all built of ruins.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
