Blanco Mice

I'm interviewing White Mice for Rock A Rolla. Since they're one of those bands who exude a ridiculous persona, I sent them an email asking if they'd answer in character, or seriously.

Here was the the band's response:


"sorry for delay, hard to keep up with everything at once last week. We would answer the questions in character, no one cares who we really are, and no matter what, the answers are bound to be irreverent, stupid and inventive. We will fill in the facts as best we can but we always speak in our own language which we call "boobonics". The standard fact sheets and band bio mental midget bullet points I can send to you, but our answers and ideas are usually beyond/below reasonable interview territory. Every band projects some image, even the most holier than thou "no gimmicks" artists, ripped sweater faux folkies/ indy kids, metal dudes, etc, much of the big business of music comes to us a preconfigured package, a commodity, and complete with a very professional cover story, biography and glossy photo. etc. An image refined. We find it all totally hideous and funny and we reflect that in our project. We unrefine music, where others would spoof we would spoor. It is all about the anthropomorphic bad joke against humanity like zombie movies are made in bad taste. You can ask the questions, but you might not actually want to know what we think, its usually very wrong. Lettuce know.


cheese!"
