Sounds Like
Chaotic ska-core. Progressive punk rock. Lots of strange vocals, strange noises, key changes, and tempos. Entire genre changes from one moment to the next, complicated yet beautiful and gritty. We are not ska enough for ska kids to like us and not hard enough for hardcore kids to like us--we are just in the middle where, guess what?!, NO ONE likes us!!! However, we promise you will have never heard another type of music like this. Sit back, strap yourself in, and be prepared for utter weirdness and utters and weirdness. We've been compaired to MSI, The Aquabats, GWAR, and a bunch of other bands we sound nothing like, but hey, whatever... right?
CC was born years ago in a dark alley inside of a trash can. Together, the eight (sometimes seven, sometimes six, sometimes nine, sometimes twelve?) members huddled together in the dark and cold, struggling to survive. Eventually, after long days of anal rape and hot Carls, Agent FMF exclaimed, "Let's play music, you sick fucks! We can bring our flith out of the streets and into punk venues where people will hate us and throw trash at our feet!" Suddenly, VA-Gena replied, "But we don't know how to play instruments!" "Who cares?" General Dick Fuck Duck shouted, "We can rely on our good looks and sex prowess!" With that, the hungry bandmates crawled out of the alley, shit their pants, and started a band playing the most fucked up ska music ever created.
um... So we have these instruments, and we play 'em real loud. We like lots of different music and have really short attention spans. So we play all kinds of different stuff in rapid succession with minimal repetition (you've got a back button on your CD player, don't ya? Why should we need to play it twice, d00dzors?) We like lots of stuff going on all at once; otherwise we get real bored. At our shows, we try to model after riots and circus acts. We like people getting dropkicked, drinking pee, doing handsprings, smearing Free Pussy's blood on VA-Gena's boobies, burning pubes... We REALLY hate holding still, so, just like in the music, there's always a bunch of stuff happening all at once. We dress up in crazy costumes and have weird props we throw around (*cough* dildos)... so yeah.... um..... just listen to the CDs, cause they're good dammit...

I'm sure you could get something together down here. We've got a sports bar that hosts some local bands occasionally, and we've got a few parks I'm sure you could probably organize some stuff at. The sports bar is pretty popular, and word of mouth travels pretty fast down here, since all the local high schools are pretty much interconnected through Myspace. The Sports bar is JD Shuckers, and they let one of my friends play some cover songs there, like Mountain Goats, Neutral Milk Hotel, WHY? kind of shit.
I dug it to the highest possible degree. As did my friends.
You guys should totally make another trip back to NC and hang down here. We've got a bad ass park and a sweet Mexican restaurant and a bowling alley...that's about it, but they are all very kick ass.
i miss my brothers and sisters too! i'm way bummed about the skatepark show. that would've been hella tight. did you ever get the pictures from that girl in salisbury?
