Unwilling survivors of an absurdly-disfiguring and failed suicide pact, founding members include: extruded-neck acephalic guitarist, Neck Head; plaid-tartan skin graft paraplegic, McPatrick Head on vocals; geometrically shattered Jigsaw Puzzle Head on bass; with Pleistocene-era petroleum-fleshed drummer LaBrea Tar Pits Head; and accomplished metal-detecting mime, Fifth Head, on electronics.

BRAN(...)POS
Stochastic synthesis of light, sound, and face drive the live masterpieces of San Francisco maestro Jake Rodriguez acclaimed over his fifteen year career in theater performance and sound.
