hi, my name is john, better known as BILL's brother, and i started bleat in order to make any kind of music without restraint under one umbrella
after one lp of warped technopunk ("igloo") and a children's rock lp ("spirograffe"), bleat expanded to a trio with daren follower on bass and darryl leonard on drums
together we made the tumbleweeds-and-pixies "spoke", and the more straightforward "ugly kisser"
bleat makes whatever kind of music we want to make
we regularly get confused as to who is making what sound-- where is that organ sound coming from? it must be one of us...
there is a lot of feedback
a bleat 45 was released in 1996, and a cd in 2001
