Listen to "Top Drawer" if it's on their page... myspace goes so goddamn slow I didn't even wait for it to load to check. They're on iTunes also.

They remind me a LOT of Captain Beefheart and I think I am really starting to love their newest album, Rabbit Habits. It's all just weird, on-the-verge-of-catchy but not quite, with funny lyrics, etc. I also bought an older album, The Man in the Blue Turban with a Face, but I haven't listened to it yet. And they have one more besides that. They're playing at ACL. Me likely.

yeah supposedly they wear weird masks and the singer has a mustache (a la beefheart)? on their older cd there is a song called "10 pound mustache". awesome.

when i saw them it seems they were just all wearing white and running around and junk... i do seem to remember more than one mustache though. there was a bunch of them up there.

Yeah I think the masks are mainly for the promo shots - though there might have been a gorilla mask involved at one point during one of the shows - I've seen them the last three times they were through Dallas, thanks mainly to Jason. They do wear disguisish stuff and are generally kooky. They put on a good show.

I love their song Van Helsing Boombox, but haven't either heard or clicked with their other stuff.
