[4everLP_Shinoda]

Oh ok but still I don´t know them.Where did you find about them?

 

[Shadowed Heart]

The United States, I believe

That's odd, because I've never heard of them either.

I Hate Jimmy Page

There's one of my favorite songs by them.

Not many people I've talked to have heard of them. & I found them out by a friend(Stephen).

Do you like something weird and different in music? Well if you do we have found a band from New York City on Elektra Records that will give you a show where you never know what to expect.

Mindless Self Indulgence, is a band that offers a different type of hard rock with a twist. That twist may be the antics on stage by both lead singer James and bassist Vanessa. When they step on stage one may wonder if this is a comedy show or a concert.



What made this show interesting are the antics that the band pulled throughout the show. This was the first show that we have done that the crowd had to watch for bodily fluids flying from the stage. From Pepto Bismal and spit anything goes on this stage. The crowd at this show was minimal, so the fluids did not harm to many concert-goers.

If the liquids that are flying around do not keep your attention, maybe the clothing will. James showed his fans that this was more of a comedy show than just another concert. His Ying-Yang look was very different and eye catching.


So, I was right, MSI is from the US, New York, in fact, lol.

I hadn't heard of them until a couple of days ago, when someone suggested I'd check them out. I listened to a couple of their songs, and their sound was pretty cool. It's also awesome that they got Jhonen Vasquez to direct one of thei videos, I mean, that's just wicked xD
