Icy Demons

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Icy Demons is an experimental music project started by Bablicon's Griffin Rodriguez (credited as Blue Hawaii) and Man Man / Need New Body's Christopher Powell (Pow Pow). A project of various Chicago musicians, they have released an album, Fights Back! on the Elephant Six-associated label Cloud Recordings.

In the fall of 2006 they released their second album, Tears of a Clone on the Eastern Developments Music

[edit] Influences & Style

Demons can be seen as a continuation of the Canterbury Scene which involved acts like Soft Machine and Robert Wyatt. They do however move forward into new ground by mixing this Canterbury style with a noticable Krautrock influence, especially that of Can (band). Other similar acts include Aksak Maboul, Pit er Pat, Pop-off Tuesday, Lightning Bolt, and Cheer Accident.
