Microphobic represents the most sublime form of scathing critique leveled at our corrupt and rotten social order. Pay close attention to his subversive lyrics and don't let his multi-textured musical background lead you to thinking that ephemeral pop fluff is easier to listen to. This is no chewing -gum-music fit to be listened to for a few weeks or months and spat out the window on your way to work. Listening to Microphobic tests your musical subconscious and commands you to find meaning in music and life!

Beady Eyed Nincompoop is a humorous, maddening, repetitive rhythm of wise-cracks

Listening to Micro-Phobic's Beady Eyed-Nincompoop is like experiencing a minimalist version of the band, The Residents (if The Residents were Texan). Micro-Phobic doesn't lead up to each song title in a so-called chorus but disregards song-crafting by beginning most every song with it's own title and hitting us over the head with that phrase again and again, until we get it. Beady Eyed Nincompoop is a humorous, maddening, repetitive rhythm of wise-cracks and lament. Microphobic doesn't exactly sing, but sounds more like a quirky beat poet or country old timer with Alzheimers that repeats his odd yet wise observations over and over. Dischordant sounds are combined with his simple lyrics that poke fun at the religous right and our very own "beady eyed nincompoop"
in, "I ain't Got the Freedom". In "Picasso had His Blue Period", the African drums and twangy sounds are suitably abstract, with the child-like and off-key voice singing the blues. Funny, clever, simple, and strange... it's Micro-Phobic!

MicroPhobic is amazing! Not your mainstream boring stuff and very very international. Just the fact that they play so many instruments from all over the world so well is pure genius. Do not keep MicroPhophic around small people because as the name states "the fear of the small" is right on.
