I is or are power animal. and i know nothing about music obviously, probably... myspace isn't big enough for my song names and you should write them a nasty letter about that. anyways song names for people songs vol.1 (numbers 1 to 4) an album we as a band recorded in texas with an amazing band called sleep whale are: (1=Dear my body im not that body, Dear Keith Hampson im not your name, you are a shaky boat with a curse upon it, but i need you to get to the other side of the lake) (2=Money money, pocket pocket) (3=Copernicus) (4= Last hovers over hospital bed/war and video games pt.2) ................................................................................................... song names for bird and rabbit, the power animal (just keith) album in wich most songs are taken from to put into our live playing are: (5= All i can hear are the bees*) (6=The turn around) (7=Rabbit) (8=Birds have worries too) (9=Your call is being monitored Mr. Hampson)...*all i can hear are the bees is not on bird and rabbit but on an up coming album most likely called dog, it is also featured on people songs .................................. (these periods are because i dont know html that great. like how to do the break thing.) ........................................................................
this is a short film made by my good friend robert aitken. it includes music i made years ago from the first power animal album "mouse". about 15 people have a copy. this perhaps encompasses why i chose not to go to highschool. it is great. you should watch and listen closely.

so, it's amazingly official. i am on the bill with ya'll the 21st. it is gonna be so much fucking fun it will be utterly indescribable to the layman. as much as i love the layman. see ya then, and about time we did this damn thing. ya know?
The drums on the new "love is alive and well" sound like elvin jones and if only 15 people have a copy i'm bout to start bootlegging it... well goodnight Power Animal i'm going back to sleepy-sleep soon i'll be resting easy, knowing that my waves are kept tight and swimming like the ocean thanks to my Power Animal swap-meet style doo-rag chuuch!
Prince Rama of Ayodhya - Boston, Massachusetts - Catchy, shambolic religious anthems that somehow dance and meditate simultaneously through states of being and/or across state lines. Weird gals, weird dude, must-see live show. The mp3s don't do them justice.
Truman Peyote - Jamaica Plains, Massachusetts - Unlikely beats crafted from harsh noises in the most pleasant and delightful way possible. Gross sounds, shifting grooves and sneaky song-writing. Can't wait!
Power Animal - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - Creepy, sparkly pop tunes with unbelievable break beats and bizarre choir sections. Does that make sense? These guys are catchy and terrifying; toe-tapping and confounding. Totally worth seeing as many times as you can!
