when metamorphosis goes retrograde.

By PJK

I want to use this blog for a moment to promote a friend's band. They are called Retrograde Metamorphosis and they play a kind of avant-garde post-rock psychedelic shoegaze surf rock. Oh, and it's all improvised. Neat huh? They have a guitarist, a violinist, two synthesizers, and a drummer.

Here's a 10 minute clip from their first gig, at the TAFE Centre for the Arts. If I recall correctly they played for over a half hour, uninterrupted. They had some really trippy projections going in the background too that you can't see very well in the footage (cells dividing and insects and stuff).



Also check out their MySpace to hear some studio recordings.

Kudos level: high.
