Song:Must Be The Moon
Album:Myth Takes
!!! (pronounced "chk chk chk") started out in the mid 90s as a post punk band. And then they added dance beats. They have had modest success in the indie and dance markets. They will never be a commercial band. !!! are from Sacramento. They were formed in 1996 out of the ashes of a couple of local bands. Lead singer Nic Offer came from the punk band The Yah Mos. The name !!! comes from the film The Gods Must Be Crazy. The other original members still with the band are guitarist Mario Andreoni and trumpeter Dan Gorman. They have gone through several lineup changes including when original drummer Mikel Gius was killed when his bike was hit by a car. !!! released a couple of albums until they signed with the British label Warp Records in 2004. Must Be the Moon is from the 2007 album Myth Takes. It's their most successful album to date. They have done well in Japan. Their latest CD Shake the Shudder was released in May and they are currently on a European tour. Those who like punk with a dance beat should check them out. Here's the video for Must Be The Moon by !!!.
