Sounds Like
Dark Ambient with bursts of scary things. Spoken noise and vaudeville-lite. Improvised bliss and confusion. Whatever the situation demands.
In the nether nexus of incomprehensible spoken words and aggressive noise melody, Mankind squats to pose for a pretty picture as urine runs down the leg.
Accomplices to each other’s vocal vagaries, at times harmonious at times quasi-odious, D.Kimm and Alexis O'Hara enlist a host of machines to fill in the blanks. Vocals, sampler, keyboards and many pawn-shopped blocks of circuits and springs contribute to the arsenal at their disposal. Everything fits strangely into small suitcase, enabling our heroines to travel the world, just like the guys with their laptops.
