The Astonishing Asthmapeople
Moosetip omelette
self-released

Quirky instrumental indie rock that reminds of the way back when funk-thrash ruled the SF Bay Area. Remember when Primus, Faith No More, Mr. Bungle and so on were on top of the world? And everyone wanted to hear slap bass? Now imagine all the copycat wannabees that sprouted up trying to cash in on the scene. It wasn't pretty. Thankfully, those days are long gone. I just wish bands like this would be gone too. Granted, TAA's bassist doesn't slap and pop, but it doesn't matter. No matter how musically skillful and tight they might be (which is plenty), my sickening sense of nostalgia is the same.
