Front Line Assembly’s Rhys Fulber recently told Lynette Cerezo that her most recent single, “Road Of Thousand Tears,” is her, “David Lynch song.”  So, it’s only fitting that this Saturday, 10/28, Lynette will be playing Eraserhood’s own Underground Arts.  Lynette Cerezo is better known as Bestial Mouths, a goth/industrial...
