Impossible Hair
Music – What is the secret of impossible hair? Buy this incredible album and you will find what rock and roll means in the XXI century. It’s a looney monkey matter.
Lyrics are as a Magritte’s painting: beautiful and crazy, colourful and black. Members are Joe Ryan, Jim Glass, Sammy Ponzar and Roman Kuebler.
You can say these guys are pretty smart just by reading what is written in their official press release: “Guitarist Jim Glass played in the legendary Baltimore band Buttsteak whose music has been described as kind of a punked-up Devo/B-52’s. They were famous for their stage presentation, which was frequently elaborate and often bordered on the bizarre. Buttsteak garnered international attention, recording a session with John Peel in London. The band later morphed into The Lee Harvey Keitel Band, which was voted best band in Baltimore by Baltimore’s City Paper. Jim specializes in providing the cinematics bits.
Bassist Roman Kuebler is the front man in one of Baltimore’s most recognizable bands, The Oranges Band put out three records on Berkeley California’s LookOut! Records (Green Day, Rancid, Ted Leo) and toured all over the place with the likes of the Hold Steady and Guided By Voices. Roman also played bass in Spoon (Merge) during the “Girls Can Tell” tour and appears on the “Kill the Moonlight” record. Roman produced the forthcoming Impossible Hair record and in general, keeps things from getting out of hand.
The influence of Washington D.C. on Impossible Hair is most evident in the drumming of Sammy Ponzar. Sammy lives a few minutes from the Dischord House in the D.C. suburb of Arlington. And his drumming that was blasting out of the Dischord basement during the Fugazi years. Sammy also plays drums in the D.C. band ant the Andalusians (Dischord/Lovitt Records)
Guitarist Joen Ryan works as a research fellow at the National Institutes of Health just outside of D.C..He studies the molecular evolution of animal embryogenesis by surveying the DNA of sea anemones and comb jellies. He writes memorable pop songs that have nothing to do with animal embryogenesis. The songs are meant to be howled!”
