About Me

Insecticide Lobotomy is a one man harsh noise experiment formed in 2007. The goal of the project is to play some shows, be as loud as possible and have some fun. Gear ranges from an assortment of effects pedals, tape recorders, a record player, and even metal bowls. Each and every performance is different, so don't miss any of them.

Live at MEGAVOD - 5/24/08
