Genod
Droog - Imagine Sesame Street skipping rhymes progressing onto
cheerleading chants; the tragic parts from the Lassie soundtrack
merged with the epic moments from Knots Landing. In this revolution
where electronics is fuelled by a live band, it seems that the
best parts of Anglo-French-American popular culture have been
condensed into a picnic hamper and exploded live on stage.
