   About Anna Salen
"They are so bizzare, yet really good" - Some anonymous lady at Eurotrash

"You guys are an experience!" - An American girl

"I haven't been mesmerised like that since I saw Jakob live" - Gregor (Schelite)

"You guys are like Jazz-Meshuggah!!" - Smacks (InVolume)

"You're the first instrumental band I've seen that can capture an audience." - A drinking buddy's girlfriend

"I hope you guys never get a singer. Because if you pay attention, there's a lot of little things going on in the songs that a singer might cover up." - Origin Of Janken

Knowing the guys and then seeing them live is like witnessing "mild mannered Clarke Kent running into a phone booth and bursting out like Godzilla" - Hugh (Erskine Street)

As Cam says we are "Alternate funk rock bounce jazz slap chunk. Skin smackin' string slapping crying cat goodness." However a more user-friendly description would read more along the lines of “an instrumental riff-based prog rock band”.

Thanks Dave,

I was surprised we got through to the next round, considering that everyone that wasn't wearing dark colors made a beeline for the door as soon as we started the first riff!

Glad you came along man, thanks for the support.

Hope we get to see you guys soon.
