Ismatic Guru: An Incredible Amount of Overwhelming Information 12"
ISMATIC GURU is the ongoing recording project between Buffalo, NY's John Toohill (Science Man) and Bran Schlia (Helmsley). A wildly dense and completely off-leash, scrambled-egg, idiot-prog punk adventure. Groovy, freaked out new wave/post-punk littered with psychedelic flashes, punctuated by snarky, strange, slice of life lyrics about intentionally over inflating a tire, a robotic peeping tom, urban legends about drugs, shunning self-improvement, an annoying bug, going to the dentist, and the thrill of trying something new. "An Incredible Amount of Overwhelming Information" is an odyssey of ideas in 35 mins that is as unique as it is catchy and represents a culmination of 4 years, 4 EPs, and 5 new songs worth of work.
