Info On his MySpace page he says: “In no way can this be considered a rock band.” We don’t what it is, but we’re absolutely sure what is not present. Again an departure from anything predictable, banal, or unwavering comes in forms of distance, flux, and even absence. Expressing that which is not – or never stops altering – is clearly going to be a tough call.

Part of this claim to nothingness comes in the form of self-irony. Posidelov makes fun of himself as someone who is either unsuited to primetime display, being less than youthful, or who simply wouldn’t want to be on (regular, national) show. “Posidelov is an aging, married kind of guy.” In his musical projects he declares an intention to “keep changing the scenery.” Like Stepanov, therefore, Posidelov also strives to find some kind of consistency in change – and thus ignore it altogether, perhaps. By ignoring fashion (or simply changing faster than market-driven whims!), he hopes to get away from “the necrosis or mortification of my ideas.
