Sounds Like
...the album is done. It is now time for you to buy it or download it for free from www.loadtheshow.com while we will still get paid for it!
Can you believe it!. I think it was like 8 months! We obviously didn't go full out the whole time as we all have jobs etc, but its been a mammoth task! We hope you enjoy it - eye the Fucken eYE - Take that Skeletor!
Otherwise we sound like...
Take that Skeletor sounds like Slipknot having breakfast with crosby Stills Nash and Young, while Birdo is on the phone to R.E.M.. Just as R.E.M. hangs up Birdo swings around and gets hi-jacked (we are from South Africa) by System os a down and then they get hi-jacked by Skwatta Kamp. While all the time the whole band is surfing board breakers.
Also sounds like we have 4 previous albums:
Joe Soap the 1st - melodic punk
Shouting from the Rails - drum n bass mixed with punk
Krazy is Kareeokee - alternative rock
Wut is Dis - progressive surf punk rock?
To get these albums
Go to www.loadtheshow.com - Free downloads, Paid Artists! To download the rest of our albums. Otherwise email us to order the actual disks
We got a record deal in Japan. Check out Pyropit in our friends. Super cool team over there!!!
All our new songs are available for free downloading at www.loadtheshow.com and we still get paid, so - ENJOY!
Take that Skeletor is in a world of its own. If you had to combine all our albums into one album of 12 songs, you'd have a fair reflection of the Skeleton.

Ahoy again my friends
Here we lie LPShow.
I wrote the coolest song today! It's cool, cause it sounds cool and it's cooler, cause it changes from 3/4 to 4/4 without anyone knowing. I'm gonna name it Taylor and Young, cause those are the names of the two authors that wrote the bitch of a reading I have to read for my paper. "Rural-to-Urban transfers: Measuring direct foregone benefits of irrigation water under uncertain water supplies." Quite a bitch!
It also happens to be the surnames of two of my favorite artists. Cory Taylor (SlipKnot) and Neil Young (solo and CSNY).
That explains LPShow. We are 5 years old. Grow everyday and change all the time. Many artists strive to fit into something, a group, genre, try cater for an audience. We have never done that and I don't think we'll ever try.
We play from where it starts. With a voice, a tiny riff, a hint of melody and whatever unfolds to make it's way onto the stage or a CD is blessed with madness, belief and sanctity. However, the stage show has never gone without notice. Humble and unassuming, melodic and intricate sounds, burn from guys who live for what they believe in. Whether it be vegetarianism, anti-Paranoia, "grass root" Capitalism morphed with the ideology of Communitarianism. In that Capitalism at it's base cannot be avoided whether good or bad (people will always bargain), but that what is stopping us is the blatant lack of respect for our fellow men and woman.
Without respect you got no way of making any society work and once there is a fault, there is an excuse for people to take over. Now there are controlling people with power and "cause". So we are left with segregation inherent in the fact that we ourselves do not take responsibility, but want others to fix our problems. Whether it be a God, a president or your parents, you have a mind of your own. Thus change is intrinsic to us all.
So have a listen, but don't judge just one song. 4 albums down and a 5th on its way. To be the best one yet I believe - Take that Skeletor.
"and we'll meet you on the other side...", Maynard James Keenan

Four Decades of Folk Rock: Order Your 4 Disc Set Set Today!
This specially compiled 4 CD Box Set from Time Life features the best Folk Rock songs from the ’60s, ’70s, ’80s and ’90s! Includes 71 Songs That Defined An Era and Influenced Generations... In Stores September 11!
Not just another genre, folk rock was born as a statement—of purpose, of taste, of superiority—the baby boom’s first imprimatur, a musical mission and a personal battle cry in a divisive time of racial tension and escalating war. For a generation of philosopher dropouts and drug-inspired visionaries, it was also the best way to partake in the era’s hippest form of artistic expression, in numbers previously unknown to man.
