programs. are the duo of Andrew Lampela (Kid Panda Hands, Dinner of Swords, GoodbyeGoats) on guitar and electronics and Ty Owen (Donner Party Dinner Party, Death Beef) on electronics and an instrument of his own, the bowed-bicycle wheel. Together, they create music that combines mellow, moody drone with bursts of ultra-harsh noise. Definitely a band to watch for in Athens.
