'weapons of mass creation'

About Me

Jamming since 2003, formed by Timo, Tristan and Simon out of the ashes of an obscure metal band (Shadow Gate). They wanted to try something else and began a quest upon finding like-minded musicians.. Joined by Erik who was searching for a band to spill his guitarguts in, and also joined by Koner (who only stayed for about a month), aslo Bienes the gypsy groover, Jakke the organic bakery dude and Minte the jah-mighty percussionist.. Playing in various settings, sometimes with guest jammers such as Klaus Hoffmann-Hoock, the man that made the Memotron possible (make sure to check it out, it's an amazing instrument!)... We have jammed at various events and parties, under the influence of various psychedelic additives and cosmic vibrations... Always improvising and having lots of great fun at it! May the music always be with us on this strange trip called life...
