Most songs feature a mix of searing lead guitar, funky bass, fuzzy organ, dynamic male vocals, bone-rattling drumbeats, trembling Tuvan Throat Singing, bastardizing bagpipes, boom boom boom boom beatbox, xyclon zube tube, spoons, spacious synthesizers, and Didgeridoo. Imagine stomping flat-footed through a mud puddle, and you have part of the Frankensteinian Funk of Prolix. - (Read more)

In 1984, people were talking about the “new wave” in rock music. Talking about those hairdressers. A bunch of guys named “Taylor.” That blonde woman... And of course, Sid Luscious. Sid Luscious and The Pants had the look and the sound the world didn’t know it craved. Teenage prodigies, they quickly rose to prominence in 1983 – barely able to drive themselves to rehearsal! Showcase performances around the world followed, as did a recording contract. Sid Luscious and The Pants were primed for great success. The press machine had geared up to prepare everyone for what the band called “Maximum New Wave”. And then the bottom fell out of their world. Holed up in various studios for almost a year, they struggled with technology, the record business, and each other.

Sid disappeared shortly thereafter and the band went their separate ways. And just as suddenly as they had been headliners, 1984’s “next big thing” became an all-but-forgotten footnote. Now, 20 years later, the band has re-formed. They’re in their mid-30s. They have a new, young keyboard player. Their legendary album “Life, Style” is scheduled for a 2005 release. - (Read more)
