They are the kings of the one-note melody. No chord changes, just beats, a rhythmic bass line with one note in it, a bunch of sound effects over that, and some samples of people talking about aliens. Track after track, album after album. Mr. Gil gil@L0PHT.COM (L-zero-P-H-T) No authority is self-justified. Resist.

of course, such a "general" generalization can be made about most bands if youre only looking at them on a surface level.. all techno sounds the same. all idm sounds the same. same thing over and over. song after song :) seriouly though, eat static have some amazing moments.. the track 'abnormal interference' makes me smile everytime.. reminds me sorta of some of the coil techno stuff (nasa arab or hills are alive or whatever).. chris. __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [*<n/ff> <=rr*/a|>r] - wednesdays 7-8 pm riders of the plastic groove - fridays 9-midnight kuci 88.9fm po box 4362 irvine ca 92616 -:.:'-"-':_/'"'"\_|'\-"-':_/_|'\_|'\_/'"'_/'"'"\_.:'-".:'-"'"'_/'"'_//'"'"
