About Experiment Zero

Product Description Originally released in 1996, "Experiment Zero" was their sixth full-length and proved to be one of their best selling. According to the original press release, it "sounds like nothing you've ever heard before, because it incorporates subliminal harmonics drawn down from the future. The experiment was recorded deep under the Earth's crust by Star Commander Steve Albini (Battlestar Shellactica). Clean out your ears, check out this record, and watch as your body is set into rhythmic motion by wild surf gravity!" Review "...[EXPERIMENT ZERO] consists of flying saucers landing on Party Beach, where the weenies are roasted with atomic energy..." --RipMan Or Astro-Man?: Star Crunch (guitar, synthesizer, lap steel, Moog synthesizer, vocals); Coco The Electronic Monkey Wizard (bass, synthesizer, Theremin, samples); Birdstuff (drums); Dexter X-Man From Planet Q. Recorded at Zero Return Sound Center, Wetumpka, Alabama on January 5-7, 1996. As born-again surf rockers, Man Or Astro-Man? bring back the frothy, metallic tones of the eternal Telecaster guitar. They also throw in spoken-word sound clips, which act as the ambient accompaniment to their trebly surf-rock sound. The result, EXPERIMENT ZERO, is full of truly adventurous guitar-sample sculptures. In the middle of this instrumental feast, the band covers the Talking Heads' "Television Man," shedding light on their appreciation for Martian flicks. Man Or Astro-Man?'s gleeful retro approach is reminiscent of when guitar instrumentals beckoned the ultimate wave and the final frontier. --Muze
