Post a Comment | Crushes are like nothing you've ever heard before - trust me! From their bio:
Crushes are a duo featuring Smith and Jones, who may or may not be humanoid. Smith screams as he distorts the purple instrument hung around his neck, a no-strings-attached wood/steel device he affectionately refers to as "the Albatross." Jones sings and adds random noise textures as she attacks the rubber pads of her electronic drum kit, a trigger-happy contraption she affectionately refers to as her "electronic drum kit." Free-form noise, abstract lyrics, male/female vocal melodies, and an electro-dub backbeat all converge, resulting in brief blasts of day-glo splatter spiked with dark pop-art humor.
Sadly, they are moving to Boston, so if you haven't seen them in Austin by now, you may have missed your chance. If you're in Boston, do yourself a favor and check them out. They are a sight to behold.
