Toah Dynamic came about in 1996 when the nascent Invisible Spies organisation convened in a remote shed with some barely functioning recording equipment. The result was the "Hip Hop Gymkhana" EP issued on the pre-Spies label C.U.Next Tuesday.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Recordings continued sporadically and in numerous locations until the debut album Movement was completed in 2000 and became the inaugural release for the newly formed Invisible Spies label.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"Movement is the sound of fuckin murder murder marvellous. This is when Braveheart turns up pissin on yo balloons and grubbin handfuls of yo cake when your 21st come creepin round. This is for new age bedroom activity wearing home made jesters hats."
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The distribution of the album was handled by a Manchester based record shop that soon reported a surprisingly strong reaction in Germany and the U.S.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Invisible Spies followed Movement with two simultaneously released E.P.s entitled Harvest Festival and Son Of A Copper. Recorded in the newly constructed Spies recording facility, the band undertook their first live dates in Sheffield and London in support of these two releases.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
After almost two years of frenetic studio activity, Toah Dynamic completed their second album Cops Hate Our Love. Huckleberry Finn Twins step out to the sound of your barge holiday as it pulls up to a scrapyard full of unruly Alsatians and boilersuited viggers revving up small motorbikes.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Toah Dynamic features Earl Shilton, Supreme Vagabond Craftsman, Kid Acne, Be My Twin, Sixty Four Cousins, Mo' Mummy and Chips For The Poor in an interlocking brotherhood of bad blood and no good.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"We are a big dog with curly hair on its belly. Nice to tickle but at a risk. You see we wern brought up straight. We are in the regeneration van heading for Owl town. Prowl the streets for the cheapest washing powder. No ca$h for questions. No gash for erections. We're inner space Bombay mixxx. The travel cats are in a ring around us and one by one we draw our shag daggers..."
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
64 Cousins >
Yo we found this run-around hound tuckin into ying and yang pizza pie at the Latvian school hall. Midnight calls and he's down the wicked wood chattin up the bears. Hand shandy anybody?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Kid Acne >
This guys got his head upside down (He has a beard hahahaha!) Guess who? it ain't Elaine Kaye from Rainbow Recruitment, it's Kid Acne the original hornted horse.
Visit his plastic pony paddock, up the M1 just past Lenham Court. Adults go free.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Supreme Vagabond Craftsman >
What did Darth Vader say to Luke Skywalker on Christmas day? I can feel your presents. What did Supreme Vagabond Craftsman say to Darth Vader on Christmas day? I've got a blow torch an ham sanny, wanna bite? Makes Sadam Hussain and Mira Hindley look like Jimmy Greaves and Sam Brown.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Earl Shilton >
Late night and death fcuk in his soul. He's seen shit you couldn't even think happened. Imagine a human with ghost hands and your half way there.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Chips for the Poor >
Let them eat cake. Let them eat micro chips. He's been frozen in time, his school daze was fuckin over. He don't even know what a pooter is let alone a bike with gears.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
More Mummy >
He spends more money on breathing apparatus then Karen Carpenter. He ain't used to the smog. It shrivels yo liver, more like the effin plonk bort off a slapped hole. He's watched "The Guru" 8 times, He's just sexually charged and dunn mind payin.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Be My Twin >
He walks like an animal. See him dcuk walk and goose step. He walked up a mountain and came down a hill. He's into general haulage and loft conversions. Yo whizzer can i have a go on yo gameboy?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The Knowledge >
He left Toah Falcons for IraQ and returned with a pac-a-mac full of magic sand, he's now rocked up in the Dobermann band.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
