These two musicians cut teeth in the local scene playing,organizing,and founding, "One big Nut".Then both players proudly served a tour of duty in the great "X+X".These practitioners of the Sonic Deadly Arts decided to focus all their mutual attention exploring the far regions of experimental noise.Never passing up the opportunity to delve deeper into the minds eye of sounds both of these aural assassins have participated and continue to involve themselves with the iiiiichestra, and Shock Tactics.With some quality growth time spent collaborating over two releases with Ghost&flower.In an effort to keep the eye entertained these two weirdos always keep an element of visual oddityin the mix.With their try anything,never resist to ask,this is supposed to be fun, and help them clear their heads, approach to things this monster continues to be interesting. Plus it's a big help to have a phenomenal label like Nail in the Coffin backing them up.There is also a hybrid version of the group that includes the dub master of Aural Resuscitation Unit. This act goes by STARUM.Some of these sounds will stimulate the mind, some will make the eardrums bleed,other pieces of theirs will lull the listener into a trance just to keep them relaxed while their face is melted off. There are no rules here.Please keep your arm and legs inside the ride at all time. Author Unknown
