“It's hard to describe LA/SF post-punk band the Fuxedos without resorting to hyperbole — they are truly one of the strangest, most captivating, cognitively and sonically dissonant, and unforgettable stage acts around. Their genre lies somewhere between speed metal, agit-jazz, and pure performance art. Costumes, confrontational politics, stage antics, and zippy tunes are as much a part of the Fuxedos' appeal as the unexpectedly serious and versatile basso vocals of leader Danny Shorago.”
Shana Nys Dambrot, Flavorpill
Spaceland says:
THE FUXEDOS are America's favorite apocalyptic comedy-lounge-punk-jazz-storytelling-cinematic-what-the-hell?-art rock band, complete with costumes, props, and bizarrely humorous theatrics. Members' touring credits include such bands and acts as Les Claypool, Stolen Babies, Faun Fables, Coheed & Cambria, Idiot Flesh, and Cirque du Soleil. They've also individually recorded or performed with everyone from Erykah Badu to Eric Clapton and from the Silversun Pickups to The Game, and have appeared not only on the "Guitar Hero" and "Rock Band" game series, but also on Hans Zimmer's score to The Dark Knight.
