THE ART OF SELF DEFENSE:
Ian-Drums
French-Guitar
Ramon-Bass
Chris-Throat
The Art of Self Defense is actually named after an obscure Jesus Lizard track. By chance, they were able to get the dot.com. Other names in the running, hemaphrodite, smobis (second most offensive band in seattle), chinky winky, the crash palace, judge dredd and the unshowered geeks. +2Broadsword.
first show, Studio seven seattle may 14th 2005
The lead singer was actually arrested in Londons heathrow airport for furnishing flase documentation to the immigration officials. He also sang for the Cork Irelands, The New Messiahs.
Ben Rosen of Unwritten law fame does remixes for the band.
Without ever having released a proper EP or album, the band has generated massive attention on such websites as myspace.
No one can really put an accurate description of their sound. The best anyone can agree on is a mixture of Faith no more, Bad Religon and System of a down.
ASD are not big fans of writing huge self absorded bios. we didn't 'burst onto any scene', 'makes splashing waves'...'thunderous'... we have never used that word. We also fey away from using such terms as,"the next new sound"
Basically, we are four creative people who really enjoy making music. It helps that we have a pretty odd sense of humor.
It also helps that we like to have homoerotic puppet shows with each other.
