Dilithium Tourdes

About Me


the year was 2005. the world had just been thrown into disarray from the aftereffects of 9/11. two men-machines rose up on the scene destined to take back everything that was once theirs. the patriotic duo stood high above the dead and decaying united states music scene and declared it was time to make pop cool again.
thus began the legacy of Dilithium Tourdes. the two young scamps, then only 21 and 20, carried their computers across miles and miles of treacherous terrain into the hearts of the world's biggest showbiz city: gulfport, mississippi. it was here they would set up their recording studio in chez du Bonerattler, aka bonerattler's room, where the majority of Dilithium Tourdes masterpieces would be recorded. little did they know that they were in the midst of a groundbreaking weather phenomenon. august 29, 2005: hurricane katrina came through and wreaked havoc on their studio, destroying hundreds of dollars of roofing shingles. shingles fell to the ground and covered the yard. it took upwards of an hour to clean up the mess, yet the band did not falter. they received their check from the insurance company and bought new tuxedos. with these tuxedos, they developed a new found confidence and began writing more material. though the situation seemed tough, and the Tourdes grew desperate at times, they continued to create masterpiece after masterpiece. it was apparent that mother nature herself could not keep the Tourdes from doing what they somewhat enjoyed.
