Max Tundra



I honestly don't know where to start with this artist. Max Tundra (ie Ben Jacobs), has a notorious reputation for being a total perfectionist, and i'd say it shows with his new album, Parallax Error Beheads You. But for someone who is a perfectionist, this guy makes the quirkiest bizarre pop music I've heard in quite some time. Sometimes quirkiness is not a positive, but this guy totally owns his quirkiness. Its very electronic oriented, but I couldn't really genre file it if i had to. I haven't listened too in depth yet, but so far its very promising!

Check out his website, he's got tons of cool photos that i'm guessing he took himself.



And this is his new video:


Funny story about this video, when i first saw it, i had accidentally opened it up in a new window, and so it was playing, unbeknownst to me, on top of itself, but in a way that it synced up, tempo-wise. So I thought it was the craziest most out-there bizarre thing i ever heard. Which, really, wasn't that far off. :)
