About Captain Exploder

We are a two-piece rock band from Columbus, Ohio. Our sound is a schizophrenic-but-fluid blend of catchy indie pop (i nearly typed "poop" here) and experimental riff-rock. We have never been able to choose between 3-minute rock songs and 6-minute spacey epics. So we play both. Then we go out for some frosty milkshakes. Mmmmm... milkshakes. You like milkshakes, don't you? Defunct in 2006 because Jarrod moved to NYC. What a turd.
