Killing Buddha
Hi. We're a band called Killing Buddha. And no, we're not a Zen hating possee, fixed on the suppression of eastern values. We're a rock band based out of Sacramento, CA. We enjoy playing shows, recording music, and plotting our psychedelic circus/rock opera troop's attack on the world. Well...one day, soon enough. We like incorporating cool weird theatrics into our live performances and hope in our small way, to improve the experience of living on planet Earth, raising the overall frequency and consciousness, if not just decibal level, up a few notches.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
We've known each other, through bizarre ways for many years. Our various previous bands include Birthday, Orisha, Avantgarden, Pyre, and Brother Madison. Good times.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We play a lot around Sacramento and more and more so in the surrounding areas. The more the merrier. We're all about playing live and somehow creating an extra memorable moment, be it through video collages, integrated dance and performance art or just good music.
Your musical influences
Between the six of us there's a shite load of musical influences. Some of the most common comparisons we get include: Pink Floyd, Radiohead, U2, Sunny Day Real Estate, Jeff Buckley, Bjork, Sigur Ros, Fiona Apple, Led Zeppelin, The Flaming Lips, Cannibal Corpse...wait not the last one so much. Anyway, we hope you enjoy.
What equipment do you use?
Lots of fun stuff.
