Exorder Concrètes
From The Black/The Winter Song Project

There’s a funny looking band called Exorder Concrètes, which is a parody of the more obscure projects of another British outfit, the long-running Cosmic Sound of Chicago. This record is a messier, more psychedelic throwback. The drums are heavily syncopated psychedelic rock, like a big buzzing space shimmy. The guitarists are gone, replaced by chaotic computer-enhanced zeros. The vocals are pitched so high that they have a funny air of desperation. But the overall mood is more like Brian Wilson’s "In Search Of Fear". There are also sides where they sound like they could be electronic at times, but they use distorted computers and similar techniques in their day-old blackened techno jams. They’re not quite as ghoulish as Wilson’s solo catalogue, but they certainly have a looser, freer edge.
