   About armedalite rifles
--->from slash-n-crash CHORDS style racket to KING TUBBY riddims to industrial clank and sometimes all in the same set...of course, this usually means we get funny looks and empty rooms when we start getting "weird"...the best comment about us.."i like it when you guys rock out, but i don't get that experimental junk"....nothing ventured, nothing gained....and i thought this was rebellion.. we've shared the stage, floor, basement, etc. w/ ALTERNATIVE TV, TV SMITH, FISHBONE, DEMOB, SUPERYOB (W/ frankie flame), BLOWFLY, GLENN MERCER (of the feelies) and we've played on all kinds of different shows from oi! to folk to experimental noise collectives....
