They're called the Daily Void.  They have songs called "The Man Without A Face," and "Tapewurm."  Their 'Top Friends' on MySpace are Santa Claus, The Moon, Anti-Christ and Hugo Ball.  Their album art looks like MC Escher caught in a nightmare.  Their band photos look like final pictures taken on a cadaver.  The "ha ha ha ha" chorus on "The Man Without A Face,” sounds like the maniacal cackle of a serial killer stabbing you to death.   There are bands that write songs and play shows and then there are bands that so carefully craft every aspect of what they put out they become the rulers of their own little world. 

Welcome to the Daily Void kingdom.  This is rock/punk/noise/whatever you want to call it, at its dirtiest.  It's murky and full of banging, snarling and a sneer so permanent that when they sing lines like "I am him laughing," it sounds more like a threat than a description of anything resembling joy.  Think Something Wicked This Way Comes meets Silence of the Lambs and you'll begin to understand the world of Daily Void.

Sounds Like: Jay Reatard, Lover!, Panthers, Tyrades, Witch
