"I don't think keyboards belong in heavy metal, but even if you need one, there's no excuse for playing a keytar. A man could be singing directly into another man's dick and look less gay than if he was playing a keytar." -Sebastian Bach, singer in Skid Row, 1989
From the dirt and sweat of West Philadelphia, Mose Giganticus is the apocalyptic neon-metal brainchild of Matt Garfield. Performing live as a power-trio, Mose Giganticus features Garfield on bass-synth, vocals, and vocoder, with a rotating cast of eager supporting musicians providing powerful drums and malevolent guitar work. As the name suggests, however, Mose Giganticus conjures a sound larger than the sum of its parts utilizing technological savvy in an ever-escalating “equipment arms-race.” Described as if Ric Ocasek and "Thriller-era" Quincy Jones started a hardcore band (John-Michael Bond, Mammoth Press).
Touring relentlessly on recycled waste vegetable oil in a converted shuttle-bus, we've been from Philadelphia to Anchorage Alaska to Miami and just about everywhere in-between.
