Is Donkey Rhubarb the one with the big weird bears hanging out?

Try the Autechre track "Granz Graf", there's probably a video on Youtube..... Hold on, I'll have a look....

Crazy music but worth the effort, ultimately.

I saw them live a few years ago and I can honestly say it was one of the most intense experiences of my life. They played in total darkness (apart from the glow of their mad machines) and it was non-stop for about an hour, no breaks or quiet bits or anything, just a full on rhythmic noise assault. I loved it, there's a fine line between just making a noise and making a musical noise, and their noise was totally musical, it was just hard work. I'm glad some things stand out in that way though, you could never call Autechre bland.
