First, there were the Beatles.
Then, there were the Doors.
Then, there was Nirvana.
Now, a band has come that surpasses all three combined as the greatest rock band ever.
That band is here. That band... is Tribal Blarf.
Tribal Blarf...well...what is there to say about Tribal Blarf. Tribal Blarf is (member wise, anyways) Adam (guitar), Matt (vocals), Trevor (vocals/rap).
Guest members include Kyle (drums) and Andy (trombone)
Band/artist history
Basically, we are all friends and graduated the same year, except for Kyle who is a senior this year.
We formed one night before McMahan Fest 03...wrote a few songs...the music was improvised on the spot. We don't take this thing too seriously, but even so, we somehow ended up being the greatest band ever, which is crazy.
As for our second show, we meant to spend a lot more time on it but school and other shit got in the way and it took a while before we actually got shit done. The main problem was that KYLE, our (ex)drummer, didn't show up because "he has a woman, now." He has since been kicked out of the band, and will never be seen nor heard from again.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
We have done two live shows: McMahanfest2K3 and a Halloween show in Nick's basement. The former one is the better of the two, but the second one turned out well enough, given the shitty schedule we had to work with. Do we like it? Fuck YEAH.
Your musical influences
Adam - the Ramones, the Clash, etc. Rancid, the Strokes, Metallica, the Talking Heads, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Andrew W.K., Pink Floyd, Archers of Loaf, Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Link Wray, much, much more.
Trevor - Eazy E, N.W.A., Paris, The DropKick Murphys, Whirlwind Heat, Queen. More to come soon.
Matt - Failure, A Perfect Circle, Weezer, The Pillows, Yasunori Mitsuda, Hiroki Kikuta, Joe Satriani, Metallica, ZUNTATA, Radiohead, the Pixies, Bad Religion, Tool, Ben Folds. Our music is nothing like any of these bands, but I listed them anyway.
Kyle - ...is NOT IN THE BAND ANYMORE. His musical influences are irrelevant.
What equipment do you use?
Adam: Spider 212 amp, Epiphone SG, Boss GT-G.
Matt: Shure Microphone, Roland Keyboard AMP, Yamaha PSR-292 keyboard.
Trevor: "Dr. Rhythm Section" drum machine. Shure SM58 Microphone.
Anything else?
20 YEAR ANNIVERSARY REUNION TOUR TBD
Dear Tribal Blarf,
U R KEWL I LUV UR MUSIK <3 ;D
Actually for being 90% improvised, it's not bad. You should sit down and seriously write something.
BLOCKBUSTER BULLsh***!

PS: Who's going to buy the first t-shirt? If they turn out nice and if Adam makes it the base price, I will buy one.
Yo Rumchug here. We need to start write some new songs. I already got two in mind. we should do these new songs around labor day.
UPDATE: We are STILL awesome.
SITE UPDATE
Hey all. Matt here. I did a little work on our info page and put up a bio for myself... Adam and Rumchug, you guys need to do the same so we can have a complete page.
If you are wondering what the hell that pic is I uploaded, that's Gai from Radiant Silvergun, which is a seriously kick-ass 2D shooter.

Hey guys: Matt here. If you're wondering what happened to that studio demo, I took it down because it sounded bad and I didn't want it to ruin our reputation as awesome musicians. I downloaded it before I deleted it and it still exists on my hard drive, so if you other band members object let me know and I will put it back up. Okay? Okay.
