It emerged from the rubble of H-Tron in the Great Age of Waste, like some sort of mutation foreshadowing the terrifyingly beautiful world to come. It was already plain to see we wouldn't be getting any sleep that night. The trouble is you never quite know where it is all going to go the next time your heart beats. Well that is what i thought. We headed out the back door looking for something more and there were people bickering about what was the right thing to do. r0se walks out in a big red coat and even bigger hair, dripping with sweat and tending to what looks like a dried up blood nose. Everyone stops and s/he says something like 'Let the baby have it's bottle.' At that instant the walls and floor exploded like you fell asleep reading some PKD novel. The rest is history. [Who's story?]
Band/artist history
I was in the real world once. It was a few seconds after I emerged from a cocoon-like object all slippery and choking and immediately I had to withdraw mentaly back into my dream-state 'womb'. My body has been trying to rejoin me ever since. But I think it has been barking up the wrong trees.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
The Vampyre's Ball on Friday was a very wonderful thing. All of Hamilton who was even slightly gothicly inclined arrived showing that they could put some effort into expressing the darkness inside them. I don't know if the organisers broke even or not but there were a lot of people in the VIP lounge. I left my bass guitar back stage somewhere and, in the state I was in, forgot it. But someone is looking for it for me. Congratulations and thanks to Chelsee for an unbeLIEvable achievement in organising it and thanks to Hellborne for making the effort to travel all this way (5 hours from Palmy) to thrill us. After the night we ended up smashing things in a kitchen percussion jam at Chelsee's. I was at Raglan Beach yesterday. I felt so dark on such a sunny day. Then I watched the sun go down from the HellManTown water tower and turned around to see the huge full moon rising from behind. Beautifilth.

What equipment do you use?
Whatever we can get.
Anything else?
We reduce each other to mere manifestations of political viewpoints. This is how we differentiate between our friends and enemies. We are living in a cartoon. We think everyone is so easy to read. We treat each other like products on a shelf. Does anyone ever consider that any other person is as scared and unsure as him/herself? And remember this when we are hurt? If we did we would have nothing to hate, nothing to fight for, nothing to strive for, no passion, nothing to love.
