Sounds Like: Vampire Squid is probably the most amazing band you will ever hear. Fusing Dynamic Polyrythms that twirl and spin with Soaring Melodies only to become Drunken Circus strains that stumble across a swamp of Orchestral Events. Seven musicians that love music for music. A real bunch of drunkards. Toss that Mozart out the fucking window, if you want smart kids, play Vampire Squid for your babies.
