Even by the generous standards of modern garage lo-fi hipsteria, Benedict Roger Wallers seems inept and incongruous; a charismatic lone wolf in a cowboy hat or trilby and a tie whose electrified howls are too idiosyncratic to be broken down into market-oriented terms. It is difficult to sketch a thumbnail summary of a musician who has amassed a vast and unwieldy discography under a variety of names and genres: the most widely acclaimed is probably the Country Teasers, but he also moonlights as, or in, the Rebel, the Company, the Male Nurse, the Beale, the Stallion, the Black Poodle and Skills on Ampex, across folk, country, garage, post-punk, no wave and electronic pop.

Wallers has amassed a near-unquantifiable discography over the past 20 years, from scores of more or less “official” LPs, EPs and 7”s to seemingly endless self-released cassettes. Back in the mid-1990s, he started making records as the leader (singer, guitarist and main songwriter) of a garage combo that would go on to develop cult status: the County Teasers. The Teasers were on Tim Warren’s legendary Crypt Records

History of the Restoration Movement

It is no agreeable task for one to undertake to write the history of his own life. I nerve myself to the task, not from any feeling of vanity, or to transmit my humble name to posterity, but, if possible, to do good after I am dead; with the hope that my example may stimulate and incourage(sic) some poor young man to break the shackles that fetter him, and rise above his early surroundings.

I was born in Nicholas County, Kentucky, the 15th day of June 1803. My father was a Virginian by birth, and lost his father of Smallpox when he was but a boy. His mother, being poor, and having but two children—both sons—put the younger out to learn the tanning business, and the elder, my father, to the shoe-making business. As soon, however, as he was of mature age, not liking his trade, he turned farmer. He first became an overseer for some gentleman in Fauquire (sic) County. Being sober and economical, he acquired some property, and purchased a farm and went to work on his own account.
