Artist description Aslem is a collection of various songs that I.V. recorded between spring of '98 and the summer of '99. There are a lot of different musical ideas represented on this CD - some have stuck around and others really should be left just where they are. (The name "Aslem" is quite the fitting title for this CD, as each song in some way or another represents the I.V. "Ass Methods", which is simply us trying to do everything ourselves.. the recording, mixing, cd artwork/design, which is why none of the 15 song titles are correct).

Music Style Eclectic Rock

Musical Influences Hope, Frustration, Youth, Ego, Dissillusion, Inspiration, no more Church, Biology

Similar Artists There are a couple of tunes on this CD that have some strong U2 undertones, mostly in the guitar work, but it is still a challenge to draw a popular musical parallel.
