BIO: Started in 1998 as just improvising with a delay pedal, a cheap keyboard, and a four-track. Rather than being organized around live performance, it was something just for the recording medium. It eventually started to include writing with other people and better technology. Since then there have been four full-length albums (on Honest In Secret , Sex Cells / Electronic Eel ), a split CD with CBGaV , and spots on Mall’s remix album ( tbtmo ), Soft Complex’s EP, and City-State’s 2nd album.
In 2001 ASiH started doing live shows. The live band has been a shifting cast, but has included Tamara Black ( jenhitt ), Lucas Carscadden ( Dead Mechanical ), Andrew Black ( The Explosion ), Alex Hedstrom ( The Axis Set ), Justin Moyer ( Supersystem/El Guapo , Edie Sedgwick ), Jon Moser ( AV Club , CBGaV ), Phil Apostol ( Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start ), Mike Mikowicz ( the mirror orchid ), Julie Cousin, and Magda Nakassis . Recordings have included Tamara Black , Alex Hedstrom, Lucas Carscadden , Justin Moyer, Andrew Black , Fluke Leming, Pavan Segal, Kyung-Nah Koh, Julie Cousin , Judith Kaplan, Mike Mikowicz , and Elsie Muniz . Alex, Mike, and Lucas are also playing in Death and the Compass . Currently, Costas in in Tamil Nadu, India doing research, so live ASiH is on hiatus until 2009, though recording is ongoing. Costas is also doing production collaborating with DJ Jesse Tittsworth .
The newest ASiH album, "Another Year in Philadelphia" came out in July 31, 2007 on Sex Cells Records and Electronic Eel Records . Five of those songs are posted on this myspace site (and you can hear some other songs at here ).For more information, shows, MP3s, and other stuff:
