Quix*o*tic teams Christina Billotte (ex Slant 6, Autoclave) with her sister Mira and Brendan on bass. Each member brings with them a mixed bag of influences: quirky monster-theme-rhythms, Crass-influenced punk, 60s R&B and seductive pop hooks. Together on "Day For Night", their first full-length CD, the band blends these seemingly disparate influences seemlessly into an album of great emotional and lyrical distinction. Quix*o*tic have toured with the Make Up and will tour this fall.

Founding members Rafael Cohen and Justin Moyer have refused to allow personnel and instrument changes stymie their explo...   [ read more ]
