   About Apis Bull
Bio - This peculiar & loud North Carolina duo formed late 2005 with the purpose of delivering sonic messages to the public. They did not aim to please listeners with melodic vocals, catchy riffs, and pop sensibility. The two made a statement and pushed the envelope as a drums and guitar duo.

In the beginning, Kevin Apis (guitar / cynical rants) went to "The Oracle" for answers to today’s questions about government, society, life, etc... He took those amphibolies to Tony Murderhands. Together the two deciphered and preserved these messages to be abrasively delivered at loud volumes to anyone within reach of Kevin’s guitar cable.

Now, The Oracle has been destroyed. We weren’t on good terms and disagreed with her ideas and opinions. Apis Bull is free to create what we want how we want, and there’s no pesky oracle telling us what do. BEWARE!
