MONSTER ZOKU ONSOMB! BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA.
(DEATH$UCKER / ACIDSAMOVAR )
From the primordial sludge of Australia seethes Monster Zoku Onsomb! ripping music to bits and assembling the pieces into a frequency jigsaw of Frankensteinian proportions! This September Monster Zoku Onsomb! leave OZ to blast another dose of their psychotronic sounds & visuals straight at who ever is brave enough to look and listen. Their third international tour takes in JAPAN RUSSIA EUROPE and the UK and coincides with the release of their new CD "EARTH EATERS" which is being released in Russia on ACIDSAMOVAR and in the UK on DEATH$UCKER RECORDS.
The Monsters third full length release is certainly not for genre purists. To create EARTH EATERS, MZO have moved beyond just splicing and dicing samples and mashups, with Miss P. Leisure securing the mic and creating a new sound using the strangest of vocal effects. They still retain their samplistic roots with plenty of bashment & retrodelica rollers, but add super futuristic basslines, beats which are unrelenting and lyrics about body implants, circuit bending and dancing in the nude to create the sound that is uniquely their own.
Put simply, MZO bring the party to any planet of sound that you happen to inhabit.
