Soul-Junk is an Experimental Hip Hop group from San Diego , California . HISTORY The roots of Soul-Junk began in 1993 when Glen Galloway began experimenting while touring as with his rock band Trumans Water . In 1994, he left Trumans to produce Soul-Junk as an independent solo project, eventually taking the moniker Glen Galaxy. Musical Evolution Early Soul-Junk albums (such as ''1950'') almost exclusively feature low-fi, Indie Rock style tracks of Glen singing bible verses interlaced with instrumental noise tracks. As Soul-Junk gained members its sound advanced toward rock and pop. ''1953'' and ''1954'' show signs of this continual change. ''1955'' shows a transition in Soul-Junk's sound. The double-disk set consists of pop / Indie rock / Hip Hop influenced sounds. It is also the last disk to make extensive use of biblical quotes – though Soul-Junk's lyrics still clearly reflect their Christian worldview. Later albums are based in experimental, abstract hip-hop. RECURRING MEMBERS
