1) aurally demanding rhythmic onslaught cosmic complexity

2) utterly chaotic and out of this world, yet astonishingly rigorous and disciplined

3) This duo's compositions are complex and can be disorienting to any listener who is accustomed to less innovative, dynamic, and demanding musics

4) influences as progressive rock stalwarts Magma, classical composers such as Chopin,
employ odd time signatures, sudden tempo changes, and passages of heavily processed noise.

5) complement one another.

6) Their overall sound is chaotic yet precise, noisy yet harmonious, catchy yet repelling, frenetic yet disciplined."

1) sounds like one of those stupid Belew lyrics (the world's my oyster soup kitchen etc!

2) see #6

3) oh play some more of that disorienting music! I'm so dizzy it's great! Actually anything outside of East Asia is by literal definition "dis-Orienting"

4) Chopin would do a Van Gogh before he enjoyed Magma. Oh boy odd time signatues, processed noise, can't wait!

5) thank you that was a really weak tune! You're welcome!

6) Good yet bad, male yet female, beautiful yet ugly, coherent yet incomprehensible. Let's cover all of our bases by being trendy!

Jim you're inital reaction is probably on target. Hey how about some Eyestrings? Oops that's another thread.

I have a friend who works for a Japanese newspaper. I'll see if he knows anything...
