Three men, silhouetted against the dawn, obscured by the spinning remnants of burnt comics and cassette tape march steadily forward through the ruins of a once pristine world. Their feet fall on torn Batman tees and broken bottles, red and blue labels strewn amidst the shards. Here, now, in a land stripped of its beauty, abused by over-exposure and the bottom line, they wander, nay, they seek to find that which is hidden behind the veil.

They walk in limbo, between past and future, analog and digital, Tron and Avatar, Spielberg and the bastard child Michael Bay, to find that awe-inspiring and elusive paradise. A place they can call home, where a Netflix account still includes unlimited streaming and physical copies under one fixed fee. A land where the dance party never ends and Obi Wan never died. These men are I, Colossus and they march fearlessly toward Oblivion. They march... to glory.

Special Guests / Opening Acts: 

THE NEW MONARCHS

The components were envisioned on the longest Midwest highways, compiled in suburban Minneapolis basements, and experienced in the land of clear water. In the late winter of 2008, Sean Hogan and Taylor Nelson crept into the deepest corners of their minds and retrieved a five-track collage of sound. Electrocaching is a journey birthed through collaboration, where the living requires the assistance of the inanimate. Meaning is found at the merging of a mental state, and a musical instrument.

SEX BURGER

Patrick Rosengren (Drums) and Chester Yourczek (Laptop) decided to make dance music.
