Details:
Greetings patrons! Welcome to The Human Zoo! Please! Humanimals of all ages! Join us for spectacular events and wild exhibits!
The Human Zoo is the first full-length release by Death is not a joyride. The concept album, recorded by John Congleton (Explosions in the Sky, The Paper Chase, The Polyphonic Spree), combines elements of post-rock, punk, goth, indie and electronica. This satirical, tongue-in-cheek collection of colorful verses is now available for human consumption!
Death is not a joyride is a female-fronted, experimental art-rock band from Austin, Texas. Comprised of a wide range of instruments, including everything from high energy drums, synths and samples to viola and mandolin, the group is known for both their schizophrenic compositions and unstoppable dancy breakdowns. Alongside vocals that twitch and croon, the band presents their live act as a circus sideshow, complete with animals masks, hypnotic visuals and zoo-based personas. Their avant-garde blend of sound craft and performance art combine into a show like nothing before!
Death is not a joyride has opened for several touring acts, such as Gang Gang Dance, Slick Idiot (Pigface, ex-KMFDM) and Gram Rabbit. They recently joined The Paper Chase for an official Fun Fun Fun Fest Afterparty. Death is not a joyride has played at many notable clubs in Austin, including Emo''s where they have appeared during Emo''s 2008 Free Week, Emo''s 15th Anniversary Week and Biscuit Fest.
Accomplishments also include being named 3rd Best Experimental Band, 4th Best Industrial/Goth Band, 5th Best Novelty Band, and 9th Best None of the Above Band in the Austin Chronicle Muisc Poll (2007) and 8th Best Experimental Band in the Austin Chronicle Music Poll (2006).
This coming June, Death is not a joyride will unleash their travelling performance art circus on their first U.S. Tour. Keep your rabbit ears pricked for dates!
