disastroid

Disastroid is hard-driving music for the working stiff who plans on opting out at any minute. As the sludge of late-late capitalism pushes harder on the door of the collective unconscious, threatening to turn us into ANTS who fall in line--get up, go to work, learn about the lives of celebrities on Entertainment Tonight before packing it in for the evening--Disastroid is picking through the vomit of the mainstream looking for the sweet little chunks of pineapple.

Disastroid is hard-driving music for the working stiff who plans on opting out at any minute. As the sludge of late-late capitalism pushes harder on the door of the collective unconscious, threatening to turn us into ANTS who fall in line--get up, go to work, learn about the lives of celebrities on Entertainment Tonight before packing it in for the evening--Disastroid is picking through the vomit of the mainstream looking for the sweet little chunks of pineapple. When Enver Koneya moved up to SF from Santa Cruz a few years back, he and Dave Kearny put together Disastroid (born Deathship Lollipop) to do righteous battle against this wasteland of consumerist apathy--this MACHINE (KILLS YOU, KILLS ME). Chad Tasky is the latest in a string of different drummers for the band... he's still trying to figure out how he got tricked into this whole thing. The music is like the Minutemen puffing blunts with Ice Cube as he's putting the last touches on AmeriKKKa; it's the Police with the tape slowed to Sabbath-heavy proportions, or a lost Nirvana cover of something by the Mahavishnu Orchestra. From the sun-bleached surf punk scene of Santa Cruz to the nightlife of San Francisco, Disastroid wants to burn down the foodcourt in the wall-to-wall strip mall, & call out the baby-kissing politician who's been FIXING THE VOTE. They're working on their second EP & finishing up an LP also. Ladies & gentlemen, give it up!
