Artist description
From deep in the heart of georgialina, the bible belt, the deep south, there is a strangness in the swamps and foothills, an uncomparable splendor, accentuated by the imbimbing of mint juleps. There is a folk music beyond the bounds of folk musics, and The HellBlinki Sextet is that music. As a creation of over Thirteen artists from Durham , NC and Augusta, GA; The HellBlinki Sextet explores the dark and beautiful rhythm of life with an unearthly mix of blues, pirate songs and calypso that digs deep into the untilled soil of your forgotten dreams and nightmares. |

Music Style
The daemons are playing a dark polka in your living room as the kitchen radio speaks truth. The Voices tell stories of long forgotten vagaries, and you always seem to miss the punchline. All humor is lost in this inexplicable sense of foreboding that clutches the very marrow of your soul... |

Press Reviews
by the way....just listened to beetle...A masterpiece of controlled noise, in ways surpassing the original efforts of the SEXTET, harnessing the before unbearable sounds of Saturday morning Network and Inspirational programming, creating an altogether new form of auditory art, which equals the genius, of the original SEXTET and their use of instruments, that can now be labeled merely mundane...... -Ben Harris"Eclectic, irreverent, and unrelenting. Thirteen songs that range from depraved to calypso. Visual artists, songwriters, and musicians joined in Augusta to hypothesize on everything from drug addiction to fading beauty to religion, aliens and nuclear war." -Laurie Locklear "Homegrown" show on 95Rock |
