No seriously - short of the Shaggs that's perfect.

frank black - growls and screeches
lee ranaldo - rhythmic atonal riffing
tom barman - guitar structures and layers
kim deal - ground sugar vocals
dr. avalanche - drums
mark sandman - 2 string slide bass
miles davis - punctuation
morrissey - back up vocals

the band could be called "goth version of hamlet"..
enjoys limited mainstream success, but becomes an inspiring indie favorite..

CHOUT 06.29.2006 04:17 AM

Not to sound narcisistic, but I'd like a band of about 5 of myself. I get so many weird stupid musical concepts that are hard to explain to people, that it would be awesome to just execute them whenever I (we) thought of them. Plus It would be fun to jam with yourself.

(Please spare me the sexual/masturbation comments that this could precipitate.)












(But an orgy with yourself would rule.)

shentov 06.29.2006 04:24 AM

steve albini
