SERVICES ? a brand new project from two veterans of the industry, icons of the NYC underground, and "non" personality superstars of their own right brought to you from the label that introduced bands such as Scissor Sisters, The Ones and Waldorf on their ATOC imprint. Trztn, artist, incendiary thinker, and owner of the idiosyncratic Pinksock Records label, has collaborated with FM Einheit (of Einstuerzende Neubauten fame), Electro Atomu (who Trztn shares another band: Sauna Kings), and German Techno legends Dr.Walker and Khan (Bedroom Productions). He also produced and released The Melted Men's last record, as well as founding and fronting the seminal New York band Flux Information Sciences, whose last record was released on M««GreetingLine»»?s Young God Records. Flux, whose members included Nick Zinner of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, was featured in last years Tribeca Film Festival documentary winner "Kill Your Idols", which tied the No-Wave NYC movement of the early '80's to current trends in music. Mr. Christopher Pravdica, professional father and slave to the women, was the bass player in The Supreme Dicks, Flux Information Sciences and the Gunga Din (who released 2 records on Jet Set Records). He?s worked in the studio with Jim Sclavunos (Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds), Larry Mullins (Iggy Pop/ Residents), Kid Congo Powers (Cramps/Gun Club) to name a few. Well if people know it then you are pretty f*cking cool? good luck - this is about art and dying for it - so get down! This debut of Services stays close to their live show performance of smart, stop and go machine-gun fire of beats and sample driven rock played in real time without a sequencer. Tape loops and heavy metal riffs cut-up and rearranged, stripped down and filled with mysterious hooks make their songs witty and powerful with sloganeering lyrics that evoke Dadaism and Surrealism: "You, Me, We: Killer Bees! Take me back to the cemetery where I?m buried - at once!" Their music gear is wielded like a weapon, with shuddering patterns and plenty of vitriolic crunch and rumbling beats that make their music sound fresh beyond boundaries: "The secrets in the shadow of your eyes?"
