IQU

It's been sometime.. A few years ago we were on K Records (once we were called icu) and toured shitload w/ The Flaming Lips, Mouse On Mars, Looper, Chix on Speed, Hovercraft, Unwound, SonicBoom(Spacemen3), Cornelius, etc... We played the first Coachella, This Ain't No Picnic, etc...You get the idea of our music. We make fun and beautiful pop music. Trippy too. Oh yeah, we got theremin too. It's played as it was meant to. ............................................................ ............................................................ ........... Check out our album "Sun Q" on Sonicboom Recordings. A 7" of our remix for Minus The Bear is out on Polyvinyl Records. Our mix of OF MONTREAL will come out on August 22nd(finally!!). ............................................................ ............................................................ ........... Check out our mix of OF MONTREAL!!! ............................................................ ............................................................ ........... http://www.polyvinylrecords.com/satanic_twins/index.html ............................................................ ............................................................ ........... Now we got a drummer, William Goldsmith (The Fire Theft, Foo Fighters, Sunny Day Real Estate) back with us again. We're working on a new record which will be out on MUSICMINE RECORDS of Japan (Guitar Wolf, DMBQ, Ken Ishii, Rei Harakami etc.). So until we figure out the US release situation it's gonna be a Japanese import. Cool, huh? ............................................................ ............................................................ ........... For peeps whohave no idea who IQU is, here's some mag (blender, I think) blah-blah-ed about us.. ............................................................ ............................................................ .......... Sun Q is IQUs foray into pop music while maintaining their trademark experimentation and DIY aesthetic, the kind that won over white belt wearing hipsters to back pack hip hop heads their first trip out. Theyre ready to add pop music lovers to a growing list of fans. Sun Q finds IQU diving head first into the disco of Moroder, the talk box funk of Zapp, the ambience of Eno, the 80s new wave of Renegade Soundwave and the pop of Gainesbourg & Hardy. And to make things even more interesting, theres a cover of Minnie Rippertons classic Loving You on theremin. IQUs studio work is polished, but their live shows border on that of two mad scientists in their laboratory trying to concoct the ultimate dance rock symphony.
