Bio
Born in a shed near the SEA (circa 1978), raised at the HOT CLUB (circa 1980), burnt out in chair-land, then burnt again just above low water in Sky's basement. On a good night KING OF SIAM was IMPROVised music and lyrics, and through an INSCRUTABLE HIGH WIRE refinement process would occasionally perform them with accidental spontaneity intact. Harrowing near train wrecks! Remarkable heart stopping Keatonesque recoveries! ..An earlier 1980 incarnation featured Bruce Glider on SG guitar, Dave Frazee on Drums and nose flute with guest superstar appearances by Gyspy the Moor, Marnie Greenholz and the Puppets from Hell, and Charles Cohen on the Buchla Synthesizer. .. Despite a dearth of commercial KING OF SIAM activities these archival samples from the deeps of the ineffable Royal Odoon vaults are available as FREE DOWNLOADS. -

Sounds Like
Paff! there's a pert quirk. It sounds like we made it all up on the spot. It sounds like it's a little rough around the edges, in the middle and vomiting rainbows. Later that same year it sounds like that same curio got scrubbed up and put on the mantle for your aunt to admire. It sounds like it came from the basement or garage and two bull terriers are run amok. Like afterthoughts adrift on the waters of the night. Like a great twisted valentine.
