Tom from myspace...
 
has Polysics in his top friends.

atsonicpark 08.06.2008 01:47 PM

They're on myspace records.

HaydenAsche 08.06.2008 01:48 PM

Oh, I suppose.

atsonicpark 08.06.2008 01:50 PM

I saw them live because they toured with myspace shit bands who I dont' even recall. Saw them for 30 minutes, talked to them for an hour, and I left. Strangely and shockingly, a LOT of people left after they played. Made me smile.

Just find some and listen. Polysics or die.

Hahah. "Who's Polysics?" :(

Polysics are a natural progression of Devo, Servotron, Brainiac, Causey Way, Lost Sounds, Mocket, and other similiarly-minded bands, fusing new wave keyboards, video game bleeps, robot vocals, surf guitars, lots of distortion, in catchy little pop songs.

Their early stuff is way way better.. a lot noisier and faster and meaner.. but they've yet to release an album I totally dislike. Just brilliant songwriting.

I'd reccomend a.d.s.r.m and Neu the most.

I have an excellent out of print DVD by them called PiPPiPppIppi P! in USA that is one of the best live DVD's I've ever seen.

atsonicpark 08.06.2008 02:07 PM

Also, they're my girlfriend's favorite band, if that's a reccomendation. Haha.

!@#$%! 08.06.2008 02:09 PM

hasn't tom left the building?

i thought ruper murdoch had bought this.

regardless, polysics are awesome.

atsonicpark 08.06.2008 02:09 PM

He's still trying to pick up Miley Cyrus, though.

mangajunky 08.06.2008 02:37 PM

Polysics is the image of DEVO without the depth.

acousticrock87 08.06.2008 02:37 PM

Every song I've heard by them sounds like Rock Lobster.

atsonicpark 08.06.2008 02:39 PM

Polysics have way more interesting things going on MUSICALLY than Devo ever did.. But Devo had more depth, yes. I'm not going to bother comparing the two, Polysics are obviously a Devo tribute band.

Also, Rock Lobster rules.

they sound like some japanese guys n gals lost in berlin

atsonicpark 08.06.2008 03:24 PM

Do what?

sarramkrop 08.07.2008 03:54 PM

Do you get kicked out myspazz if you try deleting him from your friends list? His face annoys me.

EMMAh 08.07.2008 03:56 PM

So, is Tom is real person? I never cared enough to ask until now.

I think he is the guy who started MySpace. It's probably safe to say though that now he has a decent corporate job and his page is run by a staff of entry-level employees. Just a guess?

acousticrock87 08.07.2008 03:59 PM

He's real, but his page is not.

Derek 08.07.2008 04:51 PM

There is despute over if he's real or not. I'd say not.
