SHORT BIO & ALBUM INFO:
From obscuresound.com:
With their fusion of dance, electro-pop, and glam-rock, it makes the name Apes & Androids even more appropriate. Signifying both past (apes) and futuristic (androids) intentions, their veneration for influences both past and present is on full display. That was my initial thought process, but as the band members themselves clarify in regards to the origin of their name, I suppose that a sexually dominating response is appropriately in sync with their dramatically flamboyant display of operatically relevant pop music. “An ape is the embodiment of “ideal” male sexuality and an android, female sexuality. Everything’s about sex, right?!” the five-piece said collectively. “It also spoke to us because when we’re writing our music, we’re equally obsessed with really detached electronic motifs and animalistic, beastly ones!” Alright, well, however you would like to interpret that, there is no question that Apes & Androids are composed of five unconventionally entertaining personalities.
