MOSE GIGANTICUS THE INVISIBLE TOUCH DVD RELEASED
 Mose Giganticus has just released a DVD The Invisible Touch. The disc features a live performance of MG with a full band playing his (their?) CD release show.
From the back cover of the DVD:
Once emerging from the Philadelphia underground, Mose Giganticus has been agressively expanding. What began as a DIY solo project now explodes into a pounding electro-punk quartet! The Invisible Touch DVD captures the debut performance of Mose Giganticus in a live band format, filmed in the waning days of 2006 at the CD release show for The Invisible Hand in South Philadelphia.
"These apocalyptic songs sweat... high energy electro-punk pushed through a vocoder and a keytar." - Philadelphia City Paper
Live sound for this show was provided by Red Planet. An MP3 of the album version of the song "My Machine" (from The Invisible Hand) can be found on our Audio Samples page. Both The Invisible Hand and the new Invisible Touch DVD are available from Valiant Death Records.

SITE REBOOT
Well it's been quite a while since we've updated our site, but we've been pretty busy over here. As you can see, the entire look and layout of the site has changed. In addition to making it look nicer, we've also added the content that was missing in the old one.
Other projects we have been working on include remodeling our office, re-arranging our control room and adding new gear to it, and fixing up our kitchen and lounge which now hosts old school Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Atari, DVD players and a record library... you know, for when you get bored while recording your record.
Also updated is our Audio Samples section, showcasing some of our more recent projects including: Ram & Ox, Near Dark, Hulk Smash, 11.22, Cosmonaut, Throttle, The Grinders, and Mose Giganticus, all in glorious MP3 format for your downloading and listening pleasure. Most of the older MP3s are on that page as well.
