RATS IN PARADISE

About Me

Concieved by Josh McClure in the Fall of 2005 as a band dressed up as plants and vegetables making electronic music, The Photosynthesizers survived just long enough to play one gig to a double decker bus load of bachorlettes at the Surf and Saddle before self destructing on that same night, October 15th, 2005.Almost one year has passed by and The Photosynthesizers have decided to reemerge from the swamps of Drug Induced Obscurity, Acute Remote Control Fetish, Work Overload, Dirty Oppurtunities, Scattered Signs, and Whispered Clues.Being a Performance act with out any gigs we wondered how could we acquire a larger audience than that of the crazy old people who live upstairs. The result is this; The Photosynthesizers, Phaze II, Myspace.com.This Phaze may have repercussions that go far beyond our original attack on man, music, technology, pop culture, and their various subjects. We have asked ourselves many questions concerning our use of Myspace.com to regroup and further our efforts with the exploration of the absured nature of life. We hope this music inspires you to ask some of the same questions.Oh, and please remember; NO BODY BEATS THE PHOTOSYNTHESIZERS AT THEIR OWN GAME, BECAUSE EVEN IF YOU WIN...YOU LOSE!!!Thank you,The Photosynthesizers
