Last Night's Show - A Study In Sleep Deprivation

Thanks to everyone who came out to last night's show. It was a fun time and we appreciate it. Not our worst but not our best. Christina's bass drum pedal kept busting its nut and that's not the kind of thing you want to happen on stage. Plus, we were all exhausted from a very long and strange day in our personal lives. But we met a lot of cool people and preformed smoking versions of The Senders and Masquerade of the Macbre. The Test Subjects (email list members) got a free t-shirt for coming out as well as some of the new Test Subjects who signed up last night. You can sign up for the email list online at (www.themadscientists.biz/free.html) All things considered it was a good set and the sound system at Club Dada is fantastic. If you didn't make it out I highly recomend you check out Conastants (WWW.CONSTANTSOUND.COM) they put on an amazing show and are wonderful people. If you like you rock a little more humorous check out Tober Omi (http://www.myspace.com/toberomi). Unfortunately Okay James was unable to make the show due to a car wreck. We heard it was pretty bad but that everyone is okay. Listen to their music at www.myspace.com/okayjames. A big thank you to Callithump (Carlin) and Club Dada for hosting a fun night.

Sept Featured MySpace Song - Key to the Universe

September featured song on myspace is Key to the Universe. This epic psychedelic ballad that turns on a dime was the first song Kim & Brannon wrote together. On a fateful January night Kim took her Christmas money and purchased a fretless bass. Later that night Brannon and her began jamming and the majority of Key was written that night. A couple of months later Brannon was up studying for a biology test when the lyrics came to him and poured out onto the page in a matter of minutes. And volia, Key to the Universe was born. Key to the Universe also won Best Guitars in Experimental Rock for the week of Sept. 11, 2006 on GarageBand.com

Check it out all month on myspace and of course as always you can download at
itunes

Dodging Bullets

We got mentioned by the We Shot JR crew and we were pleasantly surprised to discover they don't think we suck! Don't forget to read the comments
of those who disagree with the review. Much love to those who put some positive comments. If some people didn't hate us we would be doing something wrong.


The Mad Scientists are also playing and I think they'll be an appropriate match for Deep Snapper's debut. If you haven't seen them, they play this weird blend of psyche influenced rock with sharp funk rhythms and half shouted vocals. There is also some inexplicable guitar shredding to top it off but I've enjoyed them when I've seen or heard them. I prefer the originality of their music over a lot of Denton's "tasteful" retro country rockers, music theory students, jazz heads, and gear fetishists. - www.weshotjr.com
