Об исполнителе:
Founded in Pocahontas, Illinois, in 1995 by Ben and Bill, the band was originally known for its cow-punk, country/psych sound but over the course of 23 years, has moved into more experimental terrain, collaborating with other musicians, filmmakers, writers, painters and performance artists. In 2000, the band signed to Upland Records (a label run by former SST chief Joe Carducci and Black Flag/Descendents drummer Bill Stevenson) and released a trio of highly acclaimed albums with the Village Voice of New York describing them as "one of America's best bands.” Also throughout the 2000s, the band worked with avant-garde underground filmmaker/visual artist James Fotopolous, a collaboration that culminated in the band providing the core music for his take on Alice in Wonderland in 2010. In 2017, the band returned with widely praised double LP The Carnage Queen and an accompanying digital album Country of Piss featuring special guest Tim Garrigan (Dazzling Killmen, You Fantastic!).
