Described as: 'like Soulfly if Trent Reznor were part of the band,' their debut album "There's No Profit in Truth", mixes the pent up frustration of acts such as Rage Against The Machine with the raging, highly charged riffs of classic Machine Head. Good, honest, politically aware and highly charged Metal at its best...

Hello there! Our new six-track EP "one hit wonder!" can be downloaded from www.nekorama.net for whatever price you deem decent! Thanks for your support!
This beautiful super-heavyweight LP, which comes packaged in a sweet full-colour sleeve reunites the UK's premier free drummer Alex Neilson, who's played, amongst others, with Motor Ghost, Directing Hand, Trembling Bells, Tight Meat Duo, Josephine Foster, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, Jandek, MV&EE, Richard Youngs, Baby Dee and Alastair Galbraith, with Nmperign member Greg Kelley, whose reinvention of the trumpet is as crucial now as Anthony Braxton's reinvention of the sax was 30 years ago. A screeching, soaring, scattergun array of noises come maniacally out of Greg's horn, unlike anything we've ever heard and, with the addition of random stabs of electronics, he successfully straddles no wave, concrete and free jazz in a way that makes those genres seem like trite pigeonholes.
One man All-made record-excavator into the deep limbo of egoXploitation. —Features 43 min. of decadent loco self-conduct & mystifying woodoo'lectric playing, directly dropped down from the sole complexion of individual force as a plural human's sonic concoction, the alone-lineup that never existed but in the incarnation of one : Full-Blown Expansion.
I have fuzzy eyes - I'd liked to go back to my cosy bed but then if I have too much sleep my face inflates and I look more tired. I'm still slightly addicted to Scrabble but have cut down since they banned Faecesbook at work (>_^) Am really looking forward to Tin Can Telephone gig on Saturday - best way to celebrate my birthday! How are you? ♥
