We have no idea, but have been told the following: "Neil Young meets Nina Rota", "An old timey version of Calexico", "Ennio Morricone", "Dirty Threeish", "A bunch of sissies", & "You guys are weird".
The Top Critters are back in business! We just finished our first attempt at recording, and are in the process of mixing (what a pain in the ass). Our second record is in the works, and hopefully we'll be recording again in early 2008! We'll also be playing out a little more frequently, since the world demands it! So stay tuned; our acoustic mayhem will be coming to a venue near you soon!
Here's general background info on current members: Mike Dineen - acoustic guitar, 12-string guitar (ex-M.D. 20/20, ex-Smirk). Phil Dumesnil - accordian, banjo, slide whistle (Foibles, Best Pals). Chris Gonzales - percussion (Gargantula, Gibbs, ex-Comets on Fire). Andy Pitman - bass (Tall Can, Manger), Asa Sanchez - organ/piano(ex-Smote the Giant), Lee Tom - TBA (ex-M.D. 20/20, Gibbs)
The Critters give a big what's up to our former bass player Tiber Scheer, & our "special occasion" drummers Dave Leonard & Cole Westbrook!
