The Amino Acids
Destroy The Warming Sun

November 1, 2005

When was the last time you saw a band on stage who not only literally worship a guy named Bob, but also musically worship artists like Black Sabbath, Dick Dale, The Misfits, and Devo? When was the last time you saw a band wearing all black except for white molten “protective outer skin” aka “POS” (which looks suspiciously like white smiling masks with white pantyhose) over their heads like they’re about to steal your beer and you’re going to like it? Never, you say?! Then you obviously haven’t been to an Amino Acids show yet, and you’re missing out!

The good news is, the second best thing to seeing The Amino Acids live is hearing their incredible Theremin-fueled, Church-of-the-Subgenius-inspired, alien surf punk rock right in your very own home, office, or car.

Enter the album, The Amino Acid’s Destroy The Warming Sun.

You’ll be in a whole other place even before the first 30 seconds pass: A woman’s voice states, “Now it’s very presumptuous of us to believe that Martians are going to be any different than we are. It’s merely a freak in their genetic code that has brought them to this planet. And I’m sure they don’t plan to harm us… at least not yet,” and you are immediately assaulted with drums, surf-ish guitars, and a screeching Theremin. By the time “Lost Coordinate” begins, you’re in a happily vegetative state, or planet, whichever you prefer.

This is the new soundtrack to your freaky life.

Some ask, “Where did The Amino Acids come from?” Well, they claim to be from worlds like Kryon 7 and Jurtnet 2, but we first found their Theremin charmer, Ambassador Chuck Bronson, in Detroit a few years ago using his favorite pick-up line at The Magic Stick: “Hey, Doll. Is this guy boring you? Why don’t you come and talk to me. I’m from a different planet!” The other Aminos laughed so hard they later decided put that line in their song “Cycles-Pin.”

Since The Amino Acids have been a band, they have been frightening and exciting their audiences across the Midwest, playing clubs and Subgenius Devivals for several years now. Hopefully soon they will be in a town near you. Maybe you’ll see them “Bowling in Roswell” (also the title of the album’s penultimate song) within the next few months. Until then, though….

Please check out Destroy The Warming Sun – in some stores and available on CDBaby.com as of November 1.
