...the music was substantial: a riotous shotgun wedding of rich orchestrations and complex arrangements with the rock-oriented pleasures of flamboyant posturing and excessive volume, Mr. Coale’s fuzz-pedal bass lines and the bombastic precision of Ted Poor’s drumming.

--William Brittelle blew out his voice during a gig with his postpunk band The Blondes some years ago, effectively ending his career as a lead singer. But rather than throwing in the towel, Brittelle developed Mohair Time Warp, in which he lip-synchs his studio recorded, multitracked vocals over a stellar live band that includes members of Anti-Social Music and other new-music luminaries. Brittelle's crafty, catchy music taps ino the best of what Frank Zappa's oeuvre has to offer, while his surrealist lyrics suggest a copy of Roget's Thesarus, the complete Allen Ginsberg, and a Taco Bell menu fed into Cuisinart. Factor in Brittelle's charisma, and the results are completely electrifying." -Time Out New York
