Avagami was formed in Chicago in 2005 by Matt Espy (drums, electronics, see: Atombombpocketknife, The Reputation) and Eric Lebofsky (vocals, saxophone, electronics, see: unusual drawings) when the two met through Craigslist. Both were looking to push the pop envelope, and incorporate improvisational techniques into a song structure. Their music incorporates elements of Prog, New Wave, Noise, and Krautrock, as well as Burlesque, Lounge, and Psychotherapy (Gestalt.)
Fucking weird indie electro pop that somehow works, real nice. --www.Smother.net
“Their album is an absurd delight, like a Super Soaker filled with Cool Whip.” : Critic's Choice - Chicago Reader
