MINKA - Company Man
/ Try as I might, I cannot pinpoint the abashed love and influence from any one of the Talking Heads, The Cars, Devo, Prince or B-52s. From this astral plane, Dick Rubin, Max Perla, Joe Flack, and Barney Cortez have successfully ripped out the guts of the music their mothers were listening to while dancing feverishly in 1987 and replanted it 30 years into the future. They have taken this to over 100 house parties in Philadelphia in the past year and a half, and I anticipate these sweaty free-for-alls will be going beyond our humble town soon.
