I don't see it either. Sorry MikeMan, but I heard 30 seconds and let's just say I disagree with you. And that's putting it very, very mildly.

There people that buy Britney. There's people that buy, ermmm, this. Whatever it is.

But hey. Don't pout! It's just our opinion. In the end you have to play and like it, so why care about what we think.

It's a joke, ahhsay, it's a JOKE, son. A gag, a ruse, if you will.

Don't take this so seriously.

Apparently, the artist doesn't.

I go a looooong way from Madonna and MJ, but I just go another way. This artist will not be liked by many peeps; he is too weird.

And I am known to love weird, but this just doesn't appeal to me. I more lean towards ooioo, that seem to stay true to their Asian roots and still make rock music that to me sounds way more interesting than this Western wannabe.



Biography by Kieran McCarthy (AMG)

With OOIOO, there's plenty of distinguishing characteristics to separate them from the herd. First, you could mention the fluorescent body paint they wear on-stage. Or perhaps the demographics of their lineup, four Japanese women. Or their music, a furious amalgam of rhythmic guitars, patternless vocals, and energetic effects. The frontwoman of the group is the irrepressible Yoshimi P-We, the talented and multifaceted percussionist from the Boredoms. In this incarnation, she sings and plays guitar, but not in the way John Lennon, Kurt Cobain, or even Kim Gordon would. Her role in the group is as the main energizer, the street light around which the other moth-like noises revolve, flutter, bump, and find themselves redirected in a million different ways. It's next to impossible to describe "their sound," because -- by design -- it rarely follows consistent patterns. Suffice to say they're one of the most dynamic bands on the underground circuit. Not in the way a mid-level purchasing director would be described as dynamic, but in the way a ballistic missile would. They're bursting forth with excitement and vivacity in the way few humans, in few art forms, can. Plus, they're fun with a capital PH. Their self-titled debut album was released in the U.S. by Kill Rock Stars in 1998; their subsequent albums, Feather Float and Kila Kila Kila, were issued in the States by Birdman Records.Gold and Green was released domestically in the States by Thrill Jockey in 2005. 2006's Taiga -- which means "big river" in Japanese and "forest" in Russian -- was, aptly enough, inspired by nature. OOEYEOO, an album of remixes by Boredoms mastermind Eye, arrived in spring 2007.
