ABOUT the BAND:
SOUNDFRAME is an all original rock band
from Chicago, IL. They are a cartel of five white males who have entered
into an agreement both semi-formal and semi-secret with the express purpose
of furthering the individual aims of the members at the expense of the
laboring masses. This quixotic quintet (which sprung forth from the
bourgeoisie that saturate the Chicagoland area of the United States)
commands a sonic junta that reinforces ancient and oppressive phallocentric
notions of gender identity while simultaneously ignoring the various
theories regarding labor value, dialectical materialism, and the class
struggle.
When in the presence of these dark magicians, it becomes apparent that although thoroughly evil and misguided, these five are no amateurs. The room seems at once to breathe as the sound of the drum set literally fills the space. The bass enters, alternately punching in a manner felt in the sternum, or otherwise droning in a manner absorbed into the body and internal processes. The old rhythmic alchemy of Africa is conjured - not by accident - but through the kind of careful preparation and groundwork the non-initiate observer fails to anticipate. Upon this bedrock piano, organ, guitar and violin combine to form Prometheus in order that fire might be brought forth and the souls of men ignited in ecstatic unity. It is no accident. It is orchestration. And improvisation. It is the greatest and most dangerous band that we face today.
