Album Notes

What is pale, hairless, frightening to look at and has the distinct sound of robots replicating themselves? If you guessed Britney Spears you’d be close, but this assortment of sights, sounds (and even smells) can only be the ear markings of San Francisco favorites M.I.R.V.

Together as a unit since 1994, the band has played worldwide and has mastered a stage show that includes everything from soloing with heated waffle irons to sawing the stage in half as part of a singing saw solo. All these antics are neatly woven into a face-melting musical menagerie that often sounds like a cross between Nine Inch Nails and Tuvan harmonic Throat singing (with John Lennon in attendance-clapping frantically).

The band has toured with such acts as Jerry Cantrell, Fishbone, Primus and played with the likes of Cheap Trick and Run DMC. To date M.I.R.V. has released three CDs and are currently working on their fourth full-length studio effort.

Dancing Naked In A Minefield is a great repesentation of the bands diverse sound and is a very high-fi recording.
