From their web-site: Their instrumental array shifts from song to song, including many homemade devices suggestive of the avant-garde, but they are thoroughgoing populists, warmly regarding their varied audiences and embracing their role as entertainers. "Though not without humor, their often wide-ranging musical choices are rarely ironic. They love rock. They hate rock: Rock against Rock...Their name (and literary mannerism) is borrowed from an early 20th century American Futurist group associated with "black math"-ematician John Kane. This group was also not a museum, also quite mobile, and also dedicated to undermining bloated contemporary notions of freedom. They would like you to believe that they are the "fastest museum alive", but they are quite slow, rarely exceeding 55mph and dropping to a snail-like 22mph over the nation's many hills: a relaxed pace befitting a 14-ton mass of machine and blood..." You have never and will never see anythig like them...Nuff said that your life will ever again be the same. Beware the glorious noise. - Señor , posted 08/31/04 |
