Have a listen to the mp3 while you read. The song is “She’s All States” from the K.I.A. CD “Sonorous Susurrus” (at iTunes "HERE":http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=30919350&s=143441 ) Vocals are by Eugene Spanier and Patrick Duffy.

I say, "commercial", because prior to being signed to Warp, brothers [yes, they _are_ brothers] Michael Sandison and Marcus Eoin Sandison have released several obscure EPs and albums on their own, Music70 imprint. These were mostly self-made cassette ...

I had this font on my harddrive called OCR-something that was a dead ringer for the text on the cover and one of the best shirts I ever made in high school was ironing a homemade logo onto a shirt I found in a pretty close shade of blue to that of the cover-- shit looked legit, I imagine if anybody other than Nat and Geoff cared about sick beats they may...

Don't you love it when you accidentally get into a band? I watched those creepy flash animations, Salad Fingers, and loved the sort of haunting twisted sound that haunts his landscape.
