Sounds Like
Jet planes crashing through the sound barrier, rockets exploding through the Van Allen Belt, lasers firing from an orbital space station, alien rayguns disintegrating human flesh, neon flashing on city streets, liquid metal falling from a cold gray sky, robots fucking on a smooth steel floor, thunder in a subterranean cavern, the collision of protons in a particle accelerator, the crackle of electricity in a Tesla coil, a Cylon raider attack, a brain being probed by electrode fingers, a neutron star collapsing under the force of gravity, the shockwave after a 50 megaton nuclear explosion, a Space Invaders game on acid, the hum of machinery on the outskirts of an industrial megalopolis, an android dreaming of the god of biomechanics, computers talking to one another about global domination, a U.F.O. crash landing on Devils Tower, two planets colliding, radio transmissions from the Monolith, the death scream of a melting droid, what your hovercar stereo will play in 2053
Formed in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in 2001, out of the radioactive fallout from the White Sands atomic testing facility, Jet Jaguar is Charles Van de Kree, Trisha St. James, Joey Mach and Glen Spencer. Named after a robot in a Godzilla movie, the group combines the high energy of punk with the robotic, technology-laden sound of industrial and the drifting dreamscapes of ambient. Obsessed with visions of science-fiction apocalypse, the group's songs are terminally preoccupied with aeronautics, interstellar exploration, robotics, cloning, androidology, virtual reality, biomolecular mutation and nuclear genocide. Jet Jaguar has thus far released four full-length CDs, a split CD with the Guild Navigators, and two EPs. The group's next project, Mysteries of Antimatter, is scheduled to be released sometime in early 2010 on Overlord Records.

Chicks dig scars, everyone knows that, right? Meet Severence DeSnappio, a man who creates ‘fake’ injuries for desperate clients. He’ll get you a stab wound, shot gun blast, snowboarding injury - but a bite from a great white shark?
Set in Miami, Chicks Dig scars is a lyrical, Lynchian mix of dream logic and hard boiled detection.
