Smartass powerpopsters, basically, that's who we are. We've been together longer than we want to admit, but for the last few years or so, the band is made up of SETH GORDON on guitar and vocals, TONY LEVENTHAL on bass and vocals, ROBBIE RIST (who you may remember because he played COUSIN OLIVER on THE BRADY BUNCH) on lead guitar and vocals and NELSON BRAGG (who is also the newest member of BEACH BOY BRIAN WILSON'S band) on drums and vocals. Our last album was produced by MITCH EASTER, who has produced REM, PAVEMENT, MARSHALL CRENSHAW and a ton of others.
There are rumors we have a room reserved in Guantanamo after Bush and his cronies at the NSA saw the video for our last single THE EMPEROR STRIKES OUT. One reviewer described it as THE RAMONES directing FAHRENHEIT 9/11!
See it here before we're declared "enemy combatants!
Check out the video for our new single in Spain, MOLA, GUAY, OK (for you non-Spanish speakers, mola and guay basically mean "cool").
Oh, and we're "big" in Spain, hehehe...and speaking of Spain, here's the video we did for our cover of the Spanish classic, DEJAME, originally recorded by LOS SECRETOS. The song was the theme song in the Spanish hit film, LA FIESTA and some scenes from the movie are featured in the video.

Our favorite review is from the Phoenix New Times: "As thrilling as seeing Keith Moon kick over his kit or Ray Davies punch his brother Dave in the mouth. Yeah, it's that good."

Sigo muy preocupada con este tema, y ya han pasado meses...
No comprendo que pretende, ni cuales son sus verdaderas motivaciones, la verdad, cada dia entiendo menos todo esto, pero aunque no me llame y no sepa nada de él... siempre apoyaré a mi hijo incluso en una locura como esta.
Por cierto... cambie el diseño de mi perfil y subi alguna foto. Espero que te guste.
Muchas gracias por estar ahí.
Te dejo una img de mi hijo x si no sabes quien es.

Monster Maker -
Wailing psychedelic guitar versus smoked-out keys... man versus monster... the big final battle that sees blood shed on the desk, the eyeball to eyeball... amped up, beefed up sonic attack sees the victor stood cold sweats. Blooded, victorious and damned.
I Think You Two Should Leave -
Funk, as imagined by Tortoise taking on The James Gang... white boy distorted funk meets gonzoid electronics, all shot in Super 8 with Bruce Lee.
