subthunk

We live in a world of pre-packaged, spoon-fed music, which demands we dance to the toxic beat of jingling pennies in executive pockets. subthunk was founded to lay down "anewgroovetomoveto"*. Ignoring pigeonholes and skipping merrily between genres like a band of bipedal musical llamas, subthunk ingest sonic influences, digest diverse styles, and spit out a satisfying synthesis of aural pleasure.The band has released two albums to critical acclaim (BPM, Urb, XLR8R, FutureMusic, Remix, Los Angeles Times) and the much anticipated third album "You Should've Been Here Yesterday" is scheduled for release in early 2005.subthunk's music has been heard on high profile television shows such as Six Feet Under, Las Vegas and Boston Legal leading to Ant, the band's main composer, becoming involved in scoring for films and commercials.In 2004 the band became an international project and now has members in both the U.S. and U.K. The third album "You Should've Been Here Yesterday" was primarily written and recorded in London and contains a combination of the band's British and American musical heritage, with tracks whipped around the globe thanks to DSL (the band are currently saving up for a helicopter...) The album is the first to fully explore vocals with the introduction of vocalist/lyricist Lilo and her dulcet tones and represents the next step in subthunk's musical journeysubthunk is spelt with a small 's' for absoutely no reason at all.* according to the Ferret Keepers Weekly
