    Artist description
    Out Of Order are currently five carbon-based humanoid bi-pedals residing on a Class-M planet known as "Earth" orbiting Sol in the Alpha Quadrant of the Milky Way Galaxy. Collectively they subject the planet's inhabitants to a sound that has been described as "something almost, but not entirely, quite unlike Psychedelic Circus Cowboy Bluegrass Reggae Latin Jazz-Funk music". This sound, which takes its roots in the planet's traditional musics and branches out in ways which are, musically, highly improbable and generally not advised, has been dubbed "Space-Roots" and has the effect of sounding "familiar" but at the same time "from the planet Bizarro". When implemented properly, the band has been known to use this music to "give the Earth people a frame of reference to ground their phyical bodies while [they] telekinetically channel their psychic bodies back to Antares for reprogramming for The Great Reconfiguration".

    Artist History
    OOO formed when the Earth entered a region of space know as "Ogg-Vorbis" which co-incided with the beginning of the Earth year 2000. Much has happened in the year or so since then, most of which is documented by the US Government and is kept within their "Conspirators to Overthrow Us" department. Some audio and visual archives are available at this site or by contacting the band, but for the most detailed accounts we highly recommend the unauthorized access of government databases. As for the individual members of the band, they each remember seeing "vaguely large black triangular object(s) in the sky" which told them they should "move to Eugene, Oregon... you'll love it" on separate occasions. So they did- each one of them. Well, except for Julian who had actually grown up in Eugene and tried to leave but was mysteriously drawn back after a short stint through Europe. The band members' memories of events preceding the encounters with the vague objects are foggy at best, but they all seem to recall "enormous cake-doughnut-looking things".

    Press Reviews
    "The best band ever playing the best music ever written! These guys are awesome- at least 10 times better than the next best band. All the others may just as well put down their instruments and quit now." - Billboard Magazine" We love how their music makes everyone just want to get naked." - Rolling Stone "fnord" - New York Times "Ex ordo, vestra matris." - World Music Review
