Description: Have you heard the quote, Who watches the Watchmen? Today we ask a very similar question. Hear it today on The Jay Allen Show.

This is our second record that we recorded in 2007/8 ish. This record was a little different. Our first record we tuned to E Flat. This record we went a half-step lower, so it has a little bit more of a metal edge. There’s definitely some good songs on here. The photo shoot we did for this record was insane. We had three midgets, we had animal trainers, we had a porn star, we had a dog… I tried to create The Last Supper with all the 10 Deadly Sins. This record did fairly well. We did a couple videos... “Breaking Bread With The Devil” and “Sixty Steps Away.” I would say my favorite tracks on this probably would be, “Come Inside”  and “Sixty Steps Away.” I love to sing that one. And of course, “Breaking Bread With The Devil.” 

Breakin Bread With The Devil is about inviting the wrong people into your life. It has nothing to do with the devil, although we got banned from some stations because of the name, but they didn’t bother to ask what it meant or anything. They just assumed, and when you ASSume you make an Ass out of U and Me. 

Wicked Love Song is about the same ol’ same ol’, you know a broken hearted song. 

Feel Me is a song that between After The Mourning and Breaking Bread with the Devil, my first wife Tracie died. And I had an experience with my friend Billy Worth from The Lost Boys. I was living in Hollywood and he said come downstairs I have a joint for you. On the way back up the stairs of this building I heard this crying and my first instinct was, that’s Tracie crying. But I’m like, that can’t be Tracie, she’s dead. So I walk to my apartment and the fucking crying gets louder. I had this girl in my bed, and I thought, oh fuck, she’s crying. I rush to open the door, the keys drop...  The fuckin’ crying gets louder. I open the door and the fucking crying stops. So then a few weeks later I’m on mushrooms, sitting in that house, and I hear the crying again. I said, Tracie what is it? If they’re telling you to go somewhere, go. I forgive you. I know you forgive me. The crying stopped and I never heard it again. So “Feel Me” is about that.

Say Hello is about the birth of my son, which saved my life. With all this death, birth was a beautiful joy. “Say Hello” is a very special song. It was inspired by the Mötley record Generation Swine, which is my favorite Mötley record and is often shot down and overlooked. Tommy had a song about Brandon his son, which is a really beautiful song and I wanted to create something about my son. 

Come Inside, of course, has the sexual innuendo, but it’s about coming inside to my heart and seeing who I really am instead of just seeing the gruff exterior and believing all the lies and rumors about me. 

Kiss The Monkey is basically telling everyone to suck it. 

Bleed For Me is a song I wrote about my son’s mother. We were briefly married for three months. We have a beautiful son together. We have a rough go at it, me and her. 

Sixty Five Steps Away is about Tracie and Bianca’s graves in Hollywood Forever.  It’s how many steps their graves are away from each other. It was pointed out to me that it’s 65 steps away for me, cause I’m so tall. But compared to some other people, they were like, it’s not 65 steps for me. I’m like, oh.. The video is amazing. We guerrilla shot it at Hollywood Forever Cemetery. It looks like a fuckin’ million dollar video because of that. Dylan was in it. He was just a little baby when we did that video. I love that video. 

Liars, Cheaters & Thieves is about Hollywood, pretty much. Although, you gotta look at yourself and see if you’re doing those things in life. No matter what that is it’s just not okay. Mostly it’s about my experience in Hollywood.

King Of Fools is about this bass player that I had who would cry on the road in the bathroom of the RV. I’d be like, “dude, you need to chill out and smoke some weed or something”. He would call his girlfriend and be like, “Tony West is pushing drugs on me.” That’s what that’s about.

Liars, Cheaters, & Thieves

Til Death Do Us Part is about dealing with the deaths of Tracie and Bianca. This was really hard for me. I ended up going on some medication I later regretted. I don’t remember writing or recording this record. I do have eye witnesses saying that they saw me doing it. This was a very painful record.

The  cover was done by my friend Doni Gray, who was the drummer in LA Guns, when I did the LA Guns thing. (I sang with them for 13 shows.) The concept was like The Damned Phantasmagoria. That was the inspiration behind this cover. Having Tracie standing at the bridge was pretty profound too. Robert John did the photos. ﻿

Til Death Do Us Part is a tribute to Bianca and Tracie.

Alabama Slammer is about my ex-girlfriend Amber Lake, who won the Rock Of Love TV show. She left me after I had a nervous breakdown, basically from not dealing with the deaths of Tracie and Bianca.

Blown Away was written in part about my friend from Alice In Chains, Mike Starr. He did actually hear this record. It came out right before he died. I had the tracks. I think he died in 2011 and this record didn’t officially come out until 2012. This record was dedicated to Mike.

Game Over is one of my favorites off this record. We have a video for it that was shot by Muck Sticky. It’s basically about people running their game on you, and you have had enough of it. 

Same Ol’ Pressure is about dealing with the same ol’ same ol’ every day.

Diggin For Gold. It’s the first song I ever ended up writing with Todd Youth, who I did the whole Back To Momo record with. Todd  was a dear friend of mine. Rest In Peace. And it;s about most women, at least in L.A

Feed The Snakes is about starting rumors about yourself and seeing who buys into it and who doesn’t. 

I Do is one of my favorite fucking tracks off this record. I love to sing this song. This was inspired by the Saliva song song “All Because of You.” “I Do” is basically about how I do care about people. No matter how much I say that I don’t. 

Don’t Change is an INXS cover. I loved INXS when I was growing up. Michael Hutchence is one of the most overlooked frontmen ever. 

The Lick Kitty Split Theme Song is about my love of eating the “meow meow.”

I Don’t Love You Anymore is pretty self-explanatory. There is a song by The Dogs D'Amour called “I Don’t Love You Anymore.” I always loved that song. It was an inspiration behind this one.

Back To Momo is very special for me. I wrote it with Todd Youth. Out of all our records I have to say this is my favorite, collectively. The first three were about pain and casting out darkness. For me this was about getting back to the rock and having fun. The record was effortless to write. Todd... I miss him and love him. Momo is a whore house in West Hollywood, California that I used to frequent quite often. I took the pictures inside of the place. The picture on the back cover is actually Momo. Me and my road guy Scott Willis jumped out of my SUV and took pictures of it because I needed a picture for the back of the album. The next time I went to Momos after that the madame was like, “We saw you take picture!” I’m like, “no, I didn’t take no pictures.” She’s like, “you take picture.” I was like, “okay, yeah, we took a picture”. (LAUGHS) 

There are thirteen tracks on Back To Momo. Again, I’m very proud of this record. It was very well received. I just worry about topping this one because it’s so good. Margot Shea, who is a girl I grew up with in New York, came up with the concept for the cover. Doni Gray did the graphics and put it all together.  - TONY

Alive-N-Well Smack In The Middle of Hell That’s been a saying I’ve had for a long, long time. It’s pretty self-explanatory. It’s kind of about keeping your sanity despite the chaos that’s going on around you. We have a great video for this song... Complete with midgets jumping out of boxes, a porn star, and all kinds of stuff. 

Shake It Off is about all the pain I’ve been carrying around forever, and I just need to let that shit go. 

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall is about looking at yourself… Self-reflexion. Stop blaming everyone else. Look at yourself. 

Evil Eye is about my mom, and what I went through as a kid. We have a video for that song. 

Superjaded… is one of my favorites. The Cult was an inspiration for this song. I’ve been in Hollywood a very long time, so I’m “SuperJaded.”

Rock N Roll Outlaw was done at the persistence of Todd Youth, you know, cause people call me “Rock N Roll Outlaw.” It’s a Rose Tattoo cover. We both love Rose Tattoo.

Back To Momo is the title track, and it is one of my favorite songs to sing. I’m really proud of the lyrics. The title Back To Momo comes from failed relationships and having to pay to get you some minus the drama.  

We Are Not Saints is actually a quote taken out of the preamble of  how it  Works in AA. We are not saints. Everyone does wrong sometimes. 

It’s All About You is about my daughter’s mother. 

Meet Me On Zen Street... I wrote that when I was on a retreat in the desert trying to get zen and centered. This is another one of my favorite songs on the album. That was definitely inspired by The Ramones. The Ramones are a huge influence and inspiration for me.

Graveyard Valentine is one of my favorite titles. It’s about having loved ones in the fucking graveyard. 

Wined, Dined & 69’d was inspired by Motörhead. 

Read Between The Lines was an inspiration from Andrew Wood. I sang in Malfunkshun, which was his band before Mother Love Bone. He was a huge influence on me. He was my muse. I got to see some ugly shit in his circle and got to read between the lines.
