"I picked this up after finding eenor thru the Frog Brigade shows, I was blown away by his performance. Where is this band, how can I see them? This band should be on the Grammys tonight winning something. The cd is long and covers lots of styles and I like the way it travels, takes me on a ride. Too hard to describe here, just buy it. Somebody get this band to tour please."

So smokin', you'll think you've been cremated...

"Anyone remember S.F. locals The Limbomaniacs? How about South-Bay wonders Psychefunkapus? Of course we all know about Primus, and for those who don't know, there is a Les Claypool connection with this band. Well, this is a mish-mash of them all, with a little Oingo Boingo thrown in for good measure. A somewhat ok comparison would be like the outfit Ulu, only a little more funky. It is (bottom)-slappin, grease-drippin, funked-out, jazzed-out, music. Drips like butter of a hot biscuit, as some may say. For a measely (cost of cd), you cannot only work to get these boys some new shoes (which they all need), but you can get a heapful of some of the best tunes you'll ever come across, from one of the most awesome bands around (despite the fact that noone beyond Shattuck Ave or Haight St. seems to know who they are).Get it, get it, get it. Should you wish to try and experiment with other S.F. mind-bending efforts, look for some stuff by Laundry, El Stew, Praxis, Death Cube K and even Ben Wa. Also look for the release from No Forcefield which features Ler and Brain of Primus fame. And, for the utter amazement of what can be acheieved through a six-string guit, check out Buckethead. As Claypool has stated, Buckethead is "actually Neil Schon with Trey Anastasio on his shoulders." Go figure that one out.But, at any rate, this is HIGHLY worth the effort. Get it and you will not be disappointed. Look up top too....they even let you sample ALL the songs. How can you go wrong?"
