  • Bio

    Aesthetic beauty in music is not an absolute concern. It is rather a subjective, conceptual and contextual one much like politics. We can observe that although there are right and left leaning political movements, the further they stray from the center the more they resemble one another. Fascism, (originally a left-leaning movement) is often perceived as an extreme rightist system. Yet Fascist dictatorships are equally as oppressive as leftist Communist regimes. Right wing Libertarians are philosophically similar to left wing Anarchists in that they both advocate unlimited freedom as opposed to Fascists and Communists who favor the absolute submission of personal liberty. This illustrates that politics do not exist in a straight line. Rather, they exist in a circle where the more they travel from the center, the more similar (yet simultaneously dissimilar) they become. Could musical aesthetic function in this same manner? Repulsar was formed to test this very theory. Is there a secret trap door on the edge of “terrible” that when crawled through (on ones hands and knees) will lead to the promised land of greatness? Repulsar is committed to explore this notion through cheesy drum machines, bass tones that resemble the sound of farting, loud guitar feedback, semi-competent guitar soloing and atonal Tibetan multi-phonic throat singing techniques set to conceptually suspect themes. Rock and roll wouldn't exist if not for audiences who like loud, annoying sounds. For those who are "size queens" for loud annoyance, Repulsar serves up a twelve-inch dose of what satisfies you the most right where it hurts the worst. CAUTION: Listen to Repulsar at your own risk. It is meant only for those who have the courage to recognize the GREATNESS in really BAD MUSIC.

Aesthetic beauty in music is not an absolute concern. It is rather a subjective, conceptual and contextual one much like politics. We can observe that although there are right and left leaning political movements, the further they stray from the center the more they resemble one another. Extreme right leaning Fascist dictatorships seem equally as oppressive as left leaning Communist regimes. Conversely, in the "permissive" west, right wing Libertarians are philosophically indistinguishable from left wing Anarchists. They both advocate unlimited freedom as opposed to their eastern counterparts who favor the absolute submission of personal liberty. This indicates that political philosophy does not exist in a straight line. Rather, it exists in a circle where the more it travels from the center, the more similar it becomes. Could musical aesthetic function in the same manner? Repulsar was formed to test this very theory.

Repulsar is committed to explore this notion through cheesy drum machines, bass tones that resemble the sound of farting, loud guitar feedback, semi-competent guitar soloing and atonal Tibetan multi-phonic throat singing techniques set to conceptually suspect themes. Rock and roll wouldn't exist if there weren’t audiences who like loud, slightly annoying sounds. For those out there who are "size queens" for loud annoyance, Repulsar serves a twelve-inch dose of what satisfies you the most right where it hurts the worst.
