Master Roach Killah began his antics with the legendary sonic operation in Tuscaloosa, Al known as Meat Jones. This highly controversial project was not only an experiment in sound but also an experiment in repeated excercises of poor, degradated judgment and a total life"style" commitment upon the part of Master Roach Killah. After a heated squabble involving vomitus, blood, broken chandeliers, a 75 pound crate of bananas, 2 fresh nuns, a parking meter, 3 large-size heavy duty pairs of latex gloves (blue), a hub cap, various caliber of stuffed animals and a minor disagreement amongst the members of the group; Master Roach Killah was forced to strike out on his own occasionally organizing small recording sessions that produced, amongst other extremely unsucessful acts, Echo Eightball, Fluffer 59 and The Deusch Mob.
Now MRK has made his home in Birmingham, Al and is in preparations to perform live as a solo act and hopes to continue guest performances with whomever will put up with the crazy ape such as Them Twilight Natives.

Ps, if you reply to this comment, I’ll hit you back with a REAL one haha (real shit though, I actually will)
Please come out this Wednesday night (May 9th) to Bottletree to see Japanese avant noisemakers, Mono. Just to give you an idea, Godspeed You Black Emperor are huge fans of this band. Their live shows are careening in fields of volume and agonized sound that thunders against club walls and human skulls. This may sound obvious, but it is always a bit extra of a stretch to bring a band from Japan over to the Alabama, and your support helps us pay for the extra expense that is figured into bands' cost of making the over seas journey. Basically, we will love you forever if you come out to what will surely prove to be one of the finest mid-week mindbenders of this century. Thank you graciously for your support and enthusiasm
HERE IS MONO'S BIO INFO:
Throughout their six-year career, MONO has ascended consistently in both popularity and critical acclaim, with record sales and live show attendance corresponding. But still elusive to the Japanese quartet has been the successful translation of their powerful and violently beautiful live performances to their recordings. Despite their albums' masterful subtleties and majestic walls of noise, the consensus has remained that their transcendent live show is simply incomparable.
If there is any chance of breaking that spell, it lies in You Are There, without a doubt the prime contender to unite the live and recorded worlds of MONO. Once again captured to tape by Steve Albini at his Electrical Audio studios in Chicago, IL, the album extends the cinematic drama of 2003's Walking Cloud and Deep Red Sky, Flag Fluttered and the Sun Shined (also recorded by Albini), while surpassing the sinister heaviness of 2002's lauded One Step More and You Die.
If Walking Cloud was a nuclear winter, then You Are There is the post-war rebirth; steeped in an ominous creation-via-destruction atmosphere not heard since Neurosis' landmark Enemy of the Su
