Again, the weather sucks today. So when the band names Electric Tickle Machine and SUNBEARS! dropped our way this afternoon we had to toss in some songs and give 'em a listen. And who if they ain't a 180 from the scene outside our window! Hell, we started playing them and daisies suddenly sprouted outta our water bottle! The tunes are all horns and sunshine and psychedelic smiles that on a bright day would be downright borderline creepy, but on a day like today their strangeness is a welcome rescue from the clouds and soggy concrete surrounding us.

It's like the Elephant 6 collective never lost their edge. Or like these cats swooped in and stole fanciful danger from the air around them. In fact, if you play them loud enough, you might even cause a tear in the dimensional membrane allowing a unicorn or two to slip through, and that would make Marcus very, very happy.

Plug in and give 'em a listen.
