Biography:

The Wild Eyes are a three piece band. They penetrated into this dimension using the carcass of a fallen angel hot-wired into a 1948 John Deere-Special Road Clearance Vehicle. Their latent radioactivity and nostalgia for heavy machinery influenced their sound, leading to piercing panoramas of feedback and hip-shaking industrial grooves. Abandoned in outer space, they listened to the radio a lot. Luckily, they only received mish-mashes of fifties jukebox music and snatches of the mid 70’s disco boom. They understandably assumed this was mankind’s much discussed classical period. They were wrong. But their git-down-and-boogie approach to the ‘classical’ style has led to much hip gyration when faced with earthlings. They plan to perform as a band until the great floods wipe mankind off the face of the earth, like roadkill from a public bypass. Which, we estimate, should be around next week…So go watch them before they clock off back to Dimension X. Peace to all mankind and don’t forget your scuba gear. XXX
