The guitar bends to the breaking point. Drums pump. Drums crack.
Synthesizer samples crisp & crackle. One voice howls, the other coos.
A sea of bass over a lake of pedals.
Here is some really nerdy dirty Jazz punk. hmm..or is it vintage garage pop?
psychedelic world music?,, synth fractured dance beats.
Pretty? yes. Ugly? yes.
