Music:Member Since: 9/3/2004Band Website: theacorn.ca Band Members: Rolf Klausener, Jeff Debutte, Keiko Devaux, T. Jeffrey Malecki, Howie Tsui, Shaun Weadick Influences: genetics, high-school bullies, love, the periodic table, Oedipal complexes, sibling rivalry, prep school, hopes and dreams for the future, crippling dread, engrams, that first and special kiss, the inexorable march of time, the urge to reproduce with others of our own species, that toxic cesspool out behind the Acorn childhood home and Karloff, the avuncluar and opinionated (though apparently hallucinated) swamp-toad who lived therein. Sounds Like: The splishsplashsplosh of aminotics sluicing through a rusty sewer grate onto the scalp of a morbidly content and sewer-dwelling Sigmund Freud... followed by... a chorus of centaur hoof-stomps and whinnies lured by smell to the gleaming pate of said subterranean psychoanalyst, the creatures' first meal in days... followed by... the gutteral eructation and dulcet digestion, contrapuntally configured, from the mythological intestine. or something like that....
