Pet Minotaur is a strange little outfit from my hometown of Milford, Michigan. I can't really say who is involved for sure, but they are an interesting group. The bulk of their material seems to be improvised and tends to fluctuate between complete chaos and serene passages that might be prescribed for severe insomnia.
Yes, there is a British group with a very similar name, but this particular group has been around longer. Noone really knows for sure when Pet Minotaur started, but it is believed to have been sometime in the mid-eighties.
I will be posting much more about this group in the near future (including mp3's and other oddities)... in the meantime, please enjoy this video of Pet Minotaur performing live in 2006:
Next up we have a short film entitled "Szgggh" by another Milford group called Uneasys.
Uneasys is another offshoot of the legendary Shrimpanzee that features myself (johnmoore) and an array of guest collaborators.
As you may notice, some of the footage is recycled from the video for Shrimpanzee's "Soul Eater" *(see previous blog). The reason being is that in the middle of assembling "Szgggh", the camera's battery died, and the filmmaker was forced to use recycled and random test footage. The filmmaker could've waited to get more batteries, but, hey, when you gotta go, you gotta go!
Here it is:
stay tuned for more about Uneasys in the near future!
