About the Artist
(Warning this is written in first, second and third person....so pay attention!!!)

This all started one day back in the 70's. It was rainy somewhere and it wasn't somewhere else. Things were breaking and other things were being fixed (and then there were a few things that didn't break and, therefore, didn't need to be fixed…but that, my friend, is another story for another day). There were many things that were happening and then some that weren't and some that were going to happen, but just not yet. There were people that did and people that didn't……and then a few that didn't know whether they did or didn't but thought that it was simply safer to just to not think about it.

Chad and Kelleigh were born in a gigantic egg, kinda like the Burger King Pokey Balls that the Pokemon toys come in but much larger, somewhere in Kegopolis, Idaho. Kelleigh spent many of her younger years wrapped in cellophane. Chad would have helped but he spent his first 19 years rolling down a hill(actually the "real" rolling part only lasted for 17 1/2 years but inertia carried him for another year and a half).

What you need to realize is that one cannot roll much faster than 2 maybe 2 1/2 miles per hour, lest you risk a dislocated shoulder (by the way it was a really big hill). Yes I know, if you do the math he could have probably rolled to the moon and back or, at the least, around the Earth approx. 13 or 14 times, or maybe just all the way around the New Jersey turnpike.

When Chad finished rolling, he, of course, had to catch up on the latest fads. During his rolling years, Chad had missed disco, 8 track tapes, parachute pants, Weird Al, Ronald Reagan, the A-Team, and Iron Butterfly. It took Chad about 4 years to figure out why people had worn parachute pants. Actually, Chad never did figure that one out.

After reading the instructions on the back of a box of Southwestern Brown Minute Rice, Kelleigh knew just how to remove the cellophane(and that's all we're going to say about that).

After their long journeys, Chad and Kelleigh reunited in the summer of 1965 (yes, we do realize that this story doesn't really work in chronological terms…but...that "magic" foam wax that they sell for your car doesn't work either but they keep selling it…so just keep reading). During their first 7 years together, Chad knew something was wrong but couldn't quite put his finger on it. Then, in a moment of inspiration in 1999, Chad informed Kelleigh that his shoes were on backwards.

Once Kelleigh had his shoes on the right feet, we accidentally wrote a song. It was all a matter of timing. After all, aren't all accidents a matter of timing? I mean…if you run a red light and don't hit anything, it wasn't an accident. But, if you run that same red light and hit someone, it suddenly becomes an accident. We call it bad timing. You were just going through that intersection at the wrong time.

Back to the story, well we could've been talking some useless drivel at any moment, but this time Chad had music playing and a microphone. After we recorded it, we said it was good, and we rested on the 2nd day. We called it "MALT.WWW".

When the song was on the Internet, we noticed that we had done a better job than people who had actually tried. In fact, the song went straight to #33 on the Experimental/Post Rock chart. So, we wrote another, also by accident. We found the same enthusiasm with this song, entitled "MIB - My Inflated Buttox". The third song, "Six Inches Shorter", wasn't an accident, however, so we ran away. (note: this song eventually hit #1 on the Experimental/Post Rock chart) Chad started rolling but Kelleigh stopped him before he left the state. That boy's slick!!! (he was rolling much faster this time…I guess we'll never know where he was going) In all honesty, on November 22, 1999, we were looking for something new and different, very much unlike anything we had ever heard. We feel that we have found it.

Please Enjoy!!!

5 out of 5 stars Really funny, almost too funny to listen to while driving!.......2003-03-14

They've been playing these guys on the college radio station out here and I had to have a copy for myself....

5 out of 5 stars De-Constructing the Groove that was constructed.......2002-11-04

challenging audibly in a similar way to how Gummo was visually; not necessarily discomforting, although...hopefully...very discomforting in a sorta comforting way

5 out of 5 stars Monkeys' are on the loose!!.......2002-10-23

I went to the zoo the other day and these two monkeys' were playing and they just kept on playing til' their flip flops flew out of their rainbow bazooka. And if you think this description is a little out there and you got just a little chuckle from it, thne you need to listen to"Constructing Groove". It will have you laughing you're flip flops' all the way to mars and back. It's like taking a walk with Frank Zappa, Beck, Wierd Al, and a mumblefish through a wax museum. A little odd at first, but then you realize it goes great with applesauce, so sit back and enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars Gets you smilin and keeps you there...........2002-10-04

I had the pleasure of catching SLD "live" at their album release party. It was a gas! Great catchy tunes will keep you coming back for more. They are exceptional artists in their own minds.....and most other too. Check it out! 23 songs for 9 bucks! Its a steal at 39 cents each, 2 cents more than first class postage, and worth both! Keep em coming SLD!

5 out of 5 stars very interesting to say the least.......2002-09-23

This CD reminds me of several Zappa CD's: Joe's Garage, 200 Motels, Thingfish and Lumpy Gravy. I hear a little bit of Talking Heads too. If you're in the market for something different, you've found it.
