Artist description A thunder bolt just misses your head...a 50 ft tidal wave breaks ona high rocky cliff...the sound of Vesuvius blowing it's top, convincing theresidents of Pompeii that it's time to load up the donkey and get the hellout of Dodge...The WayOutz being played for the first time on your CDplayer...These are the sounds of uncontrolled, explosive power...the sonicblasts of pent up forces being unleashed to do what they will. Uncompromising, unforgiving and unrelenting, yet somehow warm and hypnotic.Pop hooks driven through a jet engine...riffs descending from the sky likeH-bombs...true love, true hate, true frustration and sometimes truly funny,all expressed with god help us percussion and frankensteinian electricity.Elemental, primal, intelligent and accomplished, these 16 performances are atestament to a band that plays like there is no tomorrow and so what ifthere is? If this is the only thing they ever do (and I sincerely hope it'snot) than they have done very well indeed.The WayOutz have created a madman's diary with the release of theirfirst album "Something Now". From the first notes of the raging title song "Something Now" to thestrange, sad and beautiful "Angel At My Window" this is a no holds barred,hour long trip to the edge of the galaxy and back. Every turn is anunexpected stop in a strange place, and just when you think you've got theseguys figured out, they come at you from somewhere else. It's a lot of fun tolisten to, and the musicianship and sound quality are both excellent.

Artist History 'Twas a cold, stormy night o'er the little village of Enfield whencecame the four riders of the apoocaloopz, bringing mirth and merriment tothe downtrodden and banishing buffoonery from the gate. Came they fromfair Castle Durso, high on a hill and hidden in clouds. Nay...not knightserrant on a quest to recover relics holy or slay dragons vile, butminstrels and thieves bent on entertainment! Make way ye for The WayOutz! Aye...there's Good Sir Scoob. He be the Merlin of Rhythm that doth makethy feet stamp and thy teeth gnash. Weaving the Magic Chords of Power, hebe truly a feast for ye ear holes! Gad zoox...he goeth to eleven! Stand ye aside for Lord Butch! Beware that mad gleam in his eye as heapproaches yonder drums for to pound mercilessly on them, or any haplessbumpkin that stands in his path with empty purse. OUCH! Oh shite...'tis Simple Spanky, bass player, fool, and Master of Forks.Just ignore him and mayhap he'll go away. (But alas, he never does...hemaketh mischief.) Best hide ye both ale and wench! At last, all hail Good Sir Lance! ...master of string and pipe, he dothpluck a merry tune for to make your kingly woes seem light! Click on theMP3 and prepare ye to be swooned! Spare not thy coin, good sir or madam, for Castle Durso doth beexpensive to heat, and the mutton and mead do run low.
