WHAT SOME HAVE SAID
"Madison's Kitty Rhombus is a fairly new band among the stubborn few working the snaggletoothed points of noisy, angular, and complex rock in Madison. Appropriately, it includes a former member of such sonically antagonistic local bands as the Window Smashers and Baby Shakers. On some recent demos, Kitty Rhombus' odd shapes emerge with a balance of mystery and puzzling delight." - Scott Gordon (Onion A.V.)
"your music sucks stay far far far away from summersville. scumbag."
- Maximum Headlessness some dick hole from West Virginia
"I have found a underlying theme in your music. I have not quite got it yet but there is a freedom mixed with insanity, its uncertainty but a sacrifice or freedom to the insanity, there is a weird romance between control and a loss of control."
-Dustin

we're back in Madison at The Frequency on Wed. July 22nd at 10pm!
our friend Matt says we're like Jellyfish performing a Satanic Majesty's request for a fuzz pedal cabaret or Queen melting in lava while Kenneth Anger films the whole ordeal in a lurid over exposed 8mm. our friend Corby says we're as inspired by Tim Burton as anything else, all Pee-Wee's Big Adventure goes to hell, all Beetlejuiced out. we say at least it's music, and everyone could use a good show. come see us!
Wed. July 22nd at The Frequency at 10pm with Underculture and Full Vinyl Treatment!
