Description:

"Fijit rumble like a fine seafood buffet, bestowing upon the listener a rich melange of tender delicacies juxtaposed against crustaceous husked monstrosities. An often subtle, sometimes ferocious treat that will leave you hugging your knees like a child, give you chronic insomnia, and shatter the smoldering, hollow plastic remnants of your human shell... antennae, barnacles, snapping pinchers and the insatiable sound of the sea..." -WGS

History:

Stick Farm sans one. Names and dates slip the mind. May have been from Victoria for a time. Presently inanimate.

Additional Information:

The legs on a spider crab are far too long to be effective.

'Crab is to Spider as Monkey is to Man' album insert (CD - 1996/2002 - CARB 001). Design & layout by C. Sartisohn, 2002.
