sometimes, when i'm not working out or playing bass for masonic, i lure fratboys into my apartment with drug-laced keg beer and remove one of their kidneys after violating them. i don't sell the kidney on the medical black market. that would be unethical. and kinda weird. instead, i remove their kidney in order to assert dominance over them. it knocks them down a notch. oh, i also make beats.
according to some, i'm probably somewhere between the flaming lips and aphex twin on the musical-pigeonhole spectrum.
and if you like to read as much as i like to blast my quads and pecs, you can click here to see that my album got a good review in the Austin Chronicle!
now, here's some more not-made-up press:
'What I like is the budding pyschopath vocals the Austin-by-way-of-Brooklyn nutter bestows, ... which electronic music could stand more of. '
-The Big Takeover ..57
(thanks jack rabid!)
'One-man bands are all the rage these days, but none of them has as much fun as Trey D'Amico, aka Toof. '
-Austin Chronicle
(thanks austin chronicle!)
'Toof comes across like early Beck after staying up all night reading
Isaac Asimov.'
-Austin Chronicle
(thanks again austin chronicle!)
'toof distills thoughts on topics ranging from LSD to pretty girls in
his unique sci-fi disco.'
-NOW Toronto
(thank you now toronto!)
'As the one-man band Toof, Trey D’Amico of Austin combines his musical talents with a sharp, quick-witted humor to entertain audiences.
His lyrics are akin to the Flaming Lips, and his sound sits somewhere near Aphex Twin and The Postal Service.'
-Amarillo Globe-News
(and thank you, too, amarillo globe-news!)
what's up, troy? i'd like you to hear my last album, "baaaahhhh!!!" there's linkage info in my blog area. new free album out soon to be posted on element operations' myspaces:
