has anyone seen these guys lately? i caught them last night in voodoo.
theyre so deadly! tight as fuck and really entertaining. also, the lead singer was bleeding during their show last night. total r & r madness altogether.

anyway kudos to the things.

 

[GO]

pure deadly

 

[HMD]

Whats their new stuff like?

 

[Space]

I prefer their early stuff myself.

 

[Janer]

Seen them about 3-4 times as they were on the same bill as Punkish bands.
Not my type of music but they were good at what they done.

 

[La La]

i never liked them, saw them a few times about 4 years ago and was so distracted by the lead guy - he came across as a douchebag.
that said, i would prob go see them again once more to see what they sound like today. but if that dude still has the stage presence of a gorilla beating its chest i'll probably just quietly slip away shaking my head.

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

they were great at the pink grease gig
only problem is with the use of the
microkorg. sounds really out of place

accidently caught a few minutes of them
in tower the other night too. all right simms?

Yeah, i found the whole "i'm being really outrageous" thing pretty distracting too. Ah, i just have an aversion to overly image conscious bands.

shit.

Never heard them, possibly because I associate them in my mind with that whole Humanzi/Mainline scene..am I right too, or are they more than that?

I think you're right.

 

[Mitchum]

I doubt they take themselves as seriously as Mainline/Humongzi-lead singer comes across as a coin-operated Iggy but they've a nice line in trashy psychobilly that makes for an enjoyable spectacle for about oooh half and hour.
Nice guys too, apparently-not that that matters a fig.

never mind

Humongzi-lead singer comes across as a coin-operated Iggy

At the last Jape gig I was at Richie broke a string on his strat and asked the audience if someone could change it for him. After he asked a couple of times to no avail I offered to do it and much to my embarrassment spent the next 15 minutes behind the curtains off to the side of the stage fighting with the backplate on the strat trying to get the old string out to no avail. Yer man from Humanzi popped his head round the curtain to ask what was up and if I needed a hand so he's sound in my book.

The next day I changed all the strings on my les paul in less time then it took to change that one string.

 

[therealjohnny]

those backplates are a pain in the hole on strats- i took mine off. made life a whole lot easier

 

[oglog]

still shit.

i think they're well underrated, especially by some of the know-it-alls on this site who probably have never seen them
