Well a friend and I were listening to this yesterday while being completely drunk in the spirit of my newly invented drink. Its hard to categorize this mind bending, fast paced music. Its as if salsa and mathrock got together, had a kid and the kid got hooked on amphetamines. Technical and tight, the music is complex and varies greatly. The only downside really is that the musicians seem to have trouble deciding on a genre to stay on. Heavy riffs crush all in its path while jazzy pianos slyly move the melody along, and then all hell breaks loose and electronic effects join with some frantic drumming to usher in an apocalyptic climax. And then they'll breeze along on a soft, slick groove; all in the same song. Unique and rare, not even Allmusic.com has any info on these guys. I know the track names seem fucked up, they're supposed to be like that. Track #4 11leven is one of my personal favorites.
Dead Kings
P.S. here's a link to my newly invented, totally awesome shot.
