Release Notes:

"One of the few thriving, truly independent small lables devoted to the
preservation of non-mainstream rock, Shimmy-Disc... has set a standard for
underground survival and idosyncratic musical vision in a pop age of
cookie-cutter video stars, copycat heavy metal, and billion-dollar record
company mergers. Kramer is a force of nature, and one of the few true icons of
the American Undergound." -David Fricke, ROLLING STONE
I Killed the Monster marks the triumphant return of Shimmy-Disc, reborn for the
twenty-first century as Second-Shimmy. After a five-year hiatus, Kramer returns
with a brilliant twenty-one-song compilation of tunes written by his good friend
Daniel Johnston, whose classic LPs 1990 and Artistic Vice Kramer produced in the
late eighties. Each track features standout performances by some of indie
music's brightest stars, and many feature Kramer's unmistakable prowess as one
his generation's most celebrated producers/arrangers. Few artists have been
where Kramer has been, or worked with the variety of artists he has, and this
debut release on his new Second-Shimmy label marks the birth of a new era of
great music to come.
