She might know more than five chords, but she'll never let on. Behind her back the townies call her Dogface. This is the first thing she's ever done in her life, ever, because she was born yesterday.
Favorite Sounds: Ike & Tina, Wreckless Eric, Carter Family, The Vapors, Phil Seymour Turn Ons: Good dancers + air-hockey players, tight boy pants, old dirty novels, racist cartoons Turn Offs:Music store employees, red meat, Oasis
LI'L KRISTIN
DRUMS and ANIMAL NOISES
The prettiest drummer in Orlando!! She spent eight years thumping skins with her brother in a 60s tribute trip called Argento's Children. Known as Li'l Miss Squarepegs to a few, Kristin is the only cynic in Orlando with that many plastic necklaces.
Favorite Sounds: Dutch Outsiders, Lulu, Mummies, Shangri-Las Turn Ons: Smooching, buttons, What's Happening(tm), clothes steamers Turn Offs: Things that are uh-NOY-ing, being told to smile, driving
SWEET JEFFREY
BORROWED BASS and "FOREVER"s
He's everybody's buddy!! An alumni of local rock band The Hot Six and former Fu Manchu of groovy local venue The Trapper Keeper. Check out his photography, writing, and adventures at www.kickbrightzine.com. Visit his myspace page
Favorite Sounds: James Brown, Wolfie, Dressy Bessy, Velocity Girl, Rolling Stones Turn Ons: Thrift stores, urban exploring, shows and Kristin. Turn Offs: Small talk and green beans.
The news should go down like alka seltzer after bad fish: we done busted up, kids, so stop fucking bothering us. Go see Kristin + Jeffrey's new bands The Courtneys and Jeanie & The Tits. Thank you and goodnight. Luv, Perfect Hannah
FEATURING THE PRETTIEST DRUMMER IN ORLANDO!!
TRUTH
IS
POP MUSIC
The truth is that the guitar player only learned how to stand up and play chords like less than a year ago. And the drummer always gets her fishnets caught in her kick pedal. And the bass player didn't even have a bass of his own until about two months ago.
The Sharp Objects play songs about people they don't like. And about the crushing apathy that curdles their days on Earth. The Sharp Objects are harmless and cute and will kick your ass if you say otherwise. When you come up to us at parties and bars, remember that The Sharp Objects aren't hard to talk to... you are.
Music for X-offenders and juvenile delinquents recorded live on a Bugs Bunny tape player from a radio WPRK 91.5 broadcast. Later re-recorded from same Bugs Bunny tape recorder with a $3 microphone for upload. Enjoy, suckers.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out the music before. If you'd like you can get the free Maltese CD-R (click for download) which features synth and laptop beats to go along w/ the guitar atmospherics.

MTV had a short spoof competition, and we made an entry (Julius is in it, Phil cowrote and directed it). We ran out of time and got kicked out of the stadium so the ending is incomprehensible, but we think you'll like the rest.
