Bio
through an odd confluence of improbable events, Joel, Tyler, Michelle, and Eric found themselves unified in a single, diminutive room with electrical energy humming out of expectant speakers. and then ubik. happened; the world went a little strange after that.
About

ubik.s album The World Is A Glorious Biomechanical Nightmare is available now both online and at record stores around seattle. Buy it online here, or stop by Cellophane Square (U-Dist) or Silver Platters (Queen Anne and Northgate).
ubik. is an unusual Seattle band dedicated to a unique sonic signature. Cymbals attacked with a violin bow for shrieking industrial noises. Vocals processed live with varying amounts of echo or distortion, or sometimes chopped with a hard tremolo into mechanical stutters. There are no guitars in ubik., but both basses spit, snarl, whimper, turn around, and take languid naps: one is as likely to play huge chords as it is to play single-note basslines, the other is fed through an army of effects to come out the other end sounding... well... (that's where it trails off)
