ABOUT INDIAN JEWELRY

INDIAN JEWELRY , a band from Houston, TX, were formerly known as SWARM of ANGELS, NTX + ELECTRIC, TURQUOISE DIAMONDS, CORPSES of WACO, PERPETUAL WAR PARTY BAND.

At the core INDIAN JEWELRY is a threesome (TEX KERSCHEN, ERIKA THRASHER, RODNEY RODRIGUEZ), but on tour they are known to shape-shift and add new band members in various cities to alter the sound and context of the band. "INVASIVE EXOTICS" is a caption of both the founding fathers and the adjoining companions, the structure and the free form, the tidy and the messy.

Renegades to traditional song structure, INDIAN JEWELRY mix drum machine, noise, percussion, loops, dance beats, guitar, keyboards, scraps of metal, and other sounds into an unpredictable mash of aural delights, drones, and melody. Already amassing a swarm of devotees, INDIAN JEWELRY is expanding our concept of song, and the way it is constructed and heard.

INDIAN JEWELRY is the secret that no one gives away.

RIYL: music based in cowboy motorik, hyperliterary chants and magical realism, concrete sound, endless drones, pre-cognitive dissonance, mesmerism, and atavistic junk.

PRESS QUOTES


"Witness the hoes of Babylon destroy it live with the brainfried intensity of the Velvet Underground off their faces on Peyote soundtracking Lost Highway if it had been directed by Harmony Korine, rattlesnake & shake, pure venom, napper." - 20 Jazz Funk Greats

"Indian Jewelry plays the kind of music I want to hear in my head during sex, invoking visions of wild animals - a lunging cobra, a snarling mountain lion - and erupting volcanoes. Mortal coil be damned! It was a full-on spiritual ascension, a powwow hosted by the kind of people you don't want to fuck with - the kind of people who make me think bands are cool again." - CHICAGO READER

"The mesmerizing, messy Indian Jewelry trio take you under their spell through sonic hypnotism. Their tribal beat patterns, droning guitars, and snaking rhythms lead the listener into a trance that their amorphous song structures do nothing to snap. Equal parts savage electronica and short-circuiting post rock, the trio of witch-doctoring experimentalists area a trip to experience..." - THE STRANGER

"Indian Jewelry takes Suicide's tools – echo-soaked drum machines, repetitive neon keyboard pulses and stylized vocal washes – but then put them to work. Deep, dark, dour dance music is just the foundation for a warehouse-worth of clattery percussion, reverbed guitars, electronic churn, buried saxophone blurts and synthesizer space dust. It's a vortexing black hole of sunglasses-at-night style and nihilist highway anthems..." - DUSTED MAGAZINE

"Dressed head to toe in leather and cloaked in the grey mist of a smoke machine, this freaky threesome are less of a band and more of a living LP, as if the grooves from a disc of shiny black vinyl had suddenly jumped off the record player and become a wall of a sound bigger than the stage. At times they even seem like they’re skipping or being played on some unimaginably old or dusty turntable. . . The performance is nothing less than appropriate to bring their soundtrack of dark nihilistic abandon to life." - Evan George, LA Alternative Press

"clanging and feedbacky and fuzzed up as all get out-- in other words, extremely irritating to parents and animals but otherwise awesome." - time out new york

"the kind of stuff that inspires one to rob banks or grab guitars and make some sonic-damage of my own" - shawn abnoxious, blank generation.
 
Cool - Invasive Exotics is a deadly album. Here's hoping they bring the strobe light back with them!
 
This is gonna be great.

How bout bringing Gang Gang Dance over too? They'll be in the UK in October.
 
aye, they were amazing - and that's coming from someone who hates, without exception, every band skinny wolves has ever put on
 
also playing cork in the cruibin (ex-lobby) with Wolflinge & Vomit Nest (members of rest & eachtra)

Indian Jewelry - Musical Rooms piece
http://musicalrooms.wordpress.com/2008/10/17/musical-rooms-part-45-indian-jewelry/

“We have had a space of our own for about eleven non-contiguous months over the past four and a half years, so we have learned to work wherever we can. Most recently, however, we were renting a house in Houston where we converted the utility room into a music room. The room was small and the floor was rotting, so we covered the walls in Afghans, Sarapes, and tiger blankets in an ineffective attempt to soundproof the room and recreate a forcefield installation. Because we bought many of these blankets from a nearby thrift store, there is always an off-smell residing with us. We light it with soft-wattage lamps and our strobe lights......
