Booking Agency

DD/MM/YYYY

We don't have a name and there is no wrong way to say DD/MM/YYYY. "Day Month Year," "Demon Theatre," "Dave Munthier," and the actual date (e.g. 31/10/2008) are all acceptable. We have dug our roots into bamboo forests, living rooms, sushi joints, landfills, beaches and swimming pools - often leaving our sanctuary to bring these experiences to any larger venue & festival that'll have us.

We have supported every release with incessant, warrior-like, touring. On our horizon is a 4-week European tour (fall '08) booked by Summery Agency & Paper and Iron Booking Co. In spring '08, a 2-month North American tour included a string of dates with Crystal Castles & Video Hippos, and saw us crossing paths with Diplo, The Mae-Shi & No Age. Along the way, we inherited Leafy Green Booking as our exclusive US booking agency. Our previous North American tour had us paired with Brooklyn's Japanther & included dates with the likes of Matt & Kim, Dan Deacon, Parts & Labour and Mika Miko.

We are inclined to explore, open to all concepts, and are stubborn only with regard to a no-style, no-genre, no-holds-barred approach to making music. Notable inspiration comes to us from the works of Frank Zappa, Melt Banana, DADA art and video games. Anticipate an urgent set of elastic songs - dramatic & tempered by healthy doses of irreverence that make it very hard to stand still. A swat-team style five-man spazz-out along with healthy jogs from one instrument to another, arrangement-swapping, and seemingly random walks on & off the stage.

777 [pronounced jāk'pŏt'] (Out of Touch Records, May '08) is a 7" vinyl EP prelude to our upcoming full length, scheduled for release in January '09. "Sirens roar, guitars burn their notes, drums scatter like cockroaches in light and a breakdown hammers home their discombobulating nature before launching into a riveting climax that ends with a calming plateau." - exclaim!

Are They Masks? (We Are Busy Bodies, July '07) debuted on the weekly Canadian Campus & Community Radio Charts at number 5 and continues to be played steadily on XM radio. It attempts to document our continued evolution & retains our experimental learning. Songs range from subdued atmospherics to art/noise punk. Blue Screen Of Death (We Are Busy Bodies, Dec '05) is our debut full length & can be broken up into 2 parts. The first, Blue Screen Of Death, has been described as art-school indie rock with guitar skronk, plaintive vocals & carnivalesque keyboard goof-offs. The second half, The Journey To And Escape From the Fortress of The Fluffy Love Cloud, is a collection of psyche experiments and ambient noise landscapes.
