CO-OP - COMPLETE RECORDINGS [CASSETTE]
CO-OP - COMPLETE RECORDINGS [CASSETTE]
Before Myke Chilian played in THE MANX and before Dameon Thompson adopted his ANEMOMETER moniker, the two played in CO-OP together for the better part of the early 2000’s. A quirky mixture of ultra-aggressive electro-grind, pop, metal and music made for toy commercials, the band produced a ton of music including theme songs for film festivals and The Sarah Silverman program, etc. This “COMPLETE RECORDINGS”, more precisely titled “ERROR 404 CORE and THE HIGH SCHOOL YEARS” includes just about every recording the band has ever done.
Grindy guitars, oddball accordion riffs, and twacked out synth sounds lay an intricate tapestry of aural madness which only compounds ten fold once you add vocals by all 5 members. The band might best be described as “THE LOCUST meets OFFICE SPACE meets THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS”…
FFO: The LOCUST, They Might Be Giants, Mr. Bungle, The Aquabats, GWAR, Melted Bodies, etc.
