...the ongoing recording project between Buffalo, NY's John Toohill (Science Man) and Bran Schlia (Helmsley). A wildly dense and completely off-leash, scrambled-egg, idiot-prog punk adventure. Groovy, freaked out new wave/post-punk littered with psychedelic flashes, punctuated by snarky, strange, slice of life lyrics about intentionally over inflating a tire, a robotic peeping tom, urban legends about drugs, shunning self-improvement, an annoying bug, going to the dentist, and the thrill of trying something new. "An Incredible Amount of Overwhelming Information" is an odyssey of ideas in 35 mins that is as unique as it is catchy and represents a culmination of 4 years, 4 EPs, and 5 new songs worth of work.
Buffalo freak punk duo Ismatic Guru introduced themselves with four frantic EPs released over the past four years, oozing with a rattled resolve where art punk and psychedelic terror collide in a colorful bursts of boisterous energy. An Incredible Amount of Overwhelming Information pairs the first four EPs together with five more new songs, 26 tracks in all to scramble what’s left of our bugged out minds... A place somewhere between chaotic and anthemic—still fully tweaked out and raw, but wrapped in unlikely hooks that dazzle between contortions."—DG Post Trash
