Through a lens tinted by Spaghetti Western fantasies and Bollywood dreams, the Philadelphia based ensemble, F!, creates an atmosphere akin to a Fellini film or a haunting Man Ray photograph. By twisting cartoons that once fed our minds as children into a repressed music for the villain, the bands first full length release, "An Adonis" echoes that of a deranged expressionist fairy tale. Throughout the album, the compositions toy with the idea of shifting between cinematic nostalgia by mocking and exaggerating the idea of genre.



The death of the band happened in 2007 during a routine kool aid test at rehearsal. With Justin being the one surviving member who "just doesnt like the taste of Kool-Aid", he decided to take his show off the road and into your home theater. Yes, thats right, you can hear the music you hate to love right in from your TV sets. Enjoy.



"Just imagine Dick Dale persuading some Viennese opera house to let him perform the works of Raymond Scott with a circus band." - Shaun Brady, Philadelphia City Paper
