The King Cheetah:
After a successful supporting tour with Morrissey and the release of the "Schemin" single recorded with Maxim of The Prodigy, The King Cheetah are finally releasing their debut full length album entitled "The King Cheetah LP" with Spitshine Records. Compiled of energetic and complex songs, their debut full length album is already getting rave reviews. Their unique, undefined style can be credited to influences such as John Lydon (Sex Pistols AND PIL), The Temptations, The Creation, Psychedelic Furs and The Stooges. The King Cheetah has a manifesto, a scheme, a plan. The King Cheetah are leading the way to a brand new British Invasion!

The Antarcticans:
A four-piece Los Angeles based instrumental-attack-noise group that formed in late 2001. In recordings and in their performances, The Antarcticans are a violent takeover of overwhelming feedback-peaking builds of heart-breaking psych-trips. The Antarcticans have opened shows in Los Angeles for many avant-rock acts including Acid Mothers Temple, Kinski, Deerhoof, and Mono from Japan.

The Mormons:
We don the image of mormon missionaries symbolizing the dedication, the sacrifice, and the obsession common in most artists. The musician is as fanatical as any religious zealot bent on achieving his or her own individual purpose. While some have chosen to dedicate their lives to christianity, islam, judiism, etc., THIS is the path WE have chosen and it is indeed a "religious" experience in itself. our generic uniforms, helmets, white shirts, ties and backpacks act as a fashion-neutralizer and a 'fuck-you' to the fashion show that conceals the mediocrity that is most mainstream music today. Our instruments are our bicycles and our mission is simple- to rock out correctly. and if you leave with a feeling of exitement, enjoyment, and feeling alive, then our purpose is validated. We are the band known as The Mormons.
