From last.fm:
Sic Alps are a noise pop group from San Francisco and perennially lysergic musical outlet of Mike Donovan, who formed the band with Adam Stonehouse (The Hospitals) in 2004. Current incarnation includes Noel Von Harmonson (Comets On Fire), Douglas Armour and Tim Hellman. Ty Segall is an occasional, reoccurring figure in the live band and on recordings. Sic Alps' sound could be described as a combination of early nineties lo-fi and Bay Area's sixties psychedelia. Sic Alps are notorious for their exciting and energetic live performances.

The band Knife World started in 2004 and since then, these two young men have dedicated their lives to offer this same incredible value, musically. Much like the "Taco Bravo" (which, as you may know, is a taco INSIDE a burrito), Knife World layers a solid foundation of taco meat filling Read more on Last.fm.
