About Me

Add to My Profile | More Videos ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------- The Casket Architects came from the future to fuck up your mind with music. That's the only way I can explain it. Some people call their sound sci-fi death rock, which would explain the dead bodies that pile up when they perform in public. Survivors report feeling like they were in a 'fast-moving' zombie movie: "We thought dying would slow them down, but damn it, the undead can run, and they're coming right for us!"...............Mike Shaw is insane. He's insane like 'mad genius' insane -- also like, "Dude, you're an insane guitar player, and that's an insane amount of effects pedals!" He's also an insanely friendly front-man, but you wouldn't know that from the live shows, as he screams at you in a voice one might hear before getting hit by a train....................Evan Schlomann plays the bass like an anchor and a propeller blade, but he is not a sailor to my knowledge. One day someone will sue him for knocking their teeth out with his headstock. He also has a veritable jet cockpit of effects pedals from which he drops bombs and extends landing gear into your brain...................Annie Terror is putting snare drums in comas. Her cymbals want to run away. She siphons the punk out of hardcore industrial metal and lights it on fire. She's frighteningly consistent and consistently frightening. And it's loud... I'm pretty sure they can hear it in heaven, at least in hell I know they're listening..................Jon Duelks has the opposite of jazz hands. Kind of like a cross between a lobster claw and the last wave for help from a drowning child. His synthesizer sound is a chainsaw of possibilities, from analog Nintendo-core to no-wave robot rock. He is the band's edge and he never needs sharpening. -zac shaw ............................................................ ............................................................ ...................................................... ............................................................ ............................................................ .......................................................... ............................................................ ............................................................ ..........................................................
