The Squids are alright

Attack of the Giant Squid: No "pretentious math-rock elitists."

Attack of the Giant Squid: No "pretentious math-rock elitists."

"We're always trying to impress each other with entirely new ideas in songwriting and improvisation that may fall below or above the radar of an otherwise scrutinizing live audience," Gramp says. "When we're practicing, we arrange ourselves in a circular sort of shape where we can draw from each other much more readily and react accordingly, rather than facing one direction, as in a stage setting. It's much more intimate and mentally stimulating.

"Studiowise, this debut album is a larva," Gramp continues. "Our next release will be a full-grown and bloody unicorn. I promise."
