 | oscargamblesfro (76) 11/13/2007 | Very weird pioneers of electronic music that put out two records in the late 60's, a musically uneven duo, though "A Pox On You" from their second album "Contact" was a great track. Their eponymous debut had some good songs like "Oscillations." When they were bad, they were almost unlistenable but when they were good, they were inspired, different,eerie, and even catchy . A very unique duo consisting of a very good drummer named Danny Taylor, and the mysterious Simeon, who sang and played a bunch of oscillators hooked up together in order to form a synthesiser of sorts. Way too experimental for mainstream success, and never more than a cult act- but a pretty big influence on electronic rock bands, techno, alternative rock, and even a punk band called Suicide, since then.Odd even in an era of some odd sounds, hit or miss overall, but an interesting group.
