Occupational Therapist Definition Horizontal Poster

 "It was an archly conservative, narrow-minded suburb of Chicago," Morello says now, "where the lawns were well-manicured, the church services were well-attended and the physical, emotional and sexual abuse was rampant behind those closed doors."

Morello spent most of his childhood there, and his mom taught world history and African studies at Libertyville High. His hometown is also where he became the occasional target of local racists. When he was 13, a noose was left in the family garage by neighbors.

His mom is a lifelong activist and radical, and fed her only son's political consciousness. She protested Apartheid in South Africa and Salvadoran death squads, marched against fascism and decades of institutional racism as a member of the Illinois Urban League.

Growing up in Libertyville, Morello has said, "fueled my creativity and my rage." As a teen, he channeled that through music. Punk rock inspired by the Clash and others became the deafening noise of choice for the Electric Sheep — a band that, unsurprisingly, was not universally embraced by local gentry.

"One of the guys in our band quit the band for theological reasons," says Morello. "He was a Born Again Christian and thought that our punk-rock band was heretical, which is probably accurate."

Morello remembers being formally introduced to Jones downstairs in the high school drama department. Soon, Jones was in the band, thrilled to be in a group that played original songs. (A cover of Electric Sheep's "Country Boner" was later released as Puscifer's first single in 2007, sung with an appropriately sideways twang by Maynard James Keenan.)
