sniff..... sniff.... What's that sound? It's making me feel a certain type of way.... maybe even a CRANKY type of way. We love music that is a little bit weird, a little bit mathy, a little bit meaningful, and of course a lot of fun. We play music from a newer wave of experimental rock that fuses post punk, jazz, dance music (and more!) into an exciting, ever-changing sound; CRANK WAVE!
