Banana Bag & Bodice proudly introduces to the worthy city of San Francisco the legendary heroes of the no-wave post-sludge punk scene, The Rising Fallen. Six years ago they catastrophically unleashed their unrehearsed guitar steel and the drum-tense electro-dense vocals of their never before spoken lead singer. The concert hall ended in flames and all present suffered irreversable mental damage.
Oh God.
"Once again BB&B managed to entertain, amuse, and disturb in a hauntingly grotesque and poetically absurdist way that only they can. Brilliant sound, mezmerizing dance and movement, tragic and ridiculous fairy tale. More please."
"Yhis is disgustingly intelligent work and it takes about 20 minutes to realize that you're not going to see anything like this again and you want to go back and watch it again immediately cos shows like this don't come around very often. Superb performances and an incredibly original piece. The dialogue is jaw-dropping at times."
-Audience reviews
