They have a teen, two twenty year olds, and a late 30 year old. Their favorite games are CoD4, Halo 3, and Rock Band. They're all white and their age groups can identify with their appearances. Are you sure Microsoft isn't involved?

The song is actually...catchy?! Wait, did I just say that?
It looks like they're dropping the Xbox angle because Microsoft wouldn't let them, but they're still kinda creepy.

When I read "Braid-based" I expected beautiful, mellow, possibly celtic/irish/idontknow strings.
Instead, banal middle-of-the-road rock + emoesque vocals.
My ears are now sad.

Its not geeky at all its mass marketing to my nerdcore scene (grrr...), the music is HYPER produced, the website is HYPER flashy, the photo shoots are DIY inspired but far too clean, the writing on the web site is way too "safe" its total marketing propaganda.

People never got this excited about VHS players. We are a disturbed culture, yet one I still enjoy.

It's almost like God of War facepaint but in green.

I am a record producer for two top ten billboard acts and if they dropped the face paint I think they would smash.
That song is catchy as hell. Not sure about the xbox angle but my 18 year old son plays that damn song for hours on end. Of course there is a smell emanating from his room for something green...so.

I love it, where do you get it!!! Also, I notice that the song does not play anymore on the site, so someone took it down.
I also like their master chief song, which I think is better but this one is very good.

You spoke and they listened! They are playing live at Hayley's in Everett on January 9, 2009 (just as P-Box predicted!)WITHOUT THE FACE PAINT. Their MySpace has all the info. You can get advance tickets by calling (425) 339-2424, it's a limited venue of 300 people. There are rumors of a live webstream, too.
