Double-fast experimental noise duo comprising of drummer Brian Chippendale and bassist Brian Gibson...info@laserbeast.com

Their live show is beyond belief. What with Chippendale drumming faster han most men can do anything, let alone drum; and the fact that they play in the middle of the floor and not on the stage means that the crowd pulsates continuously while constantly treatening to collapse onto the drums or Gibson's bass. Security hate it, punk rock mate...yeeeah.
