Ok, I got a response from the bay area group on yahoo. I swear I'm not advocating the band. I just saw that they are playing Amoeba Records on Haight next week when I'm there.

I swear that this list exists in an absolute vaccuum, I also swear that it's like having a conversation with a void in this list sometimes.
Triclops! are pretty good. Some people liken them to the second coming of whatever...
They put on a good live show, but the people that lose their shit over them tend to be people that completely missed the noiserock explosion (not spockmorgue, noiserock!) that happened in the bay area a few years back.
They did not appear out of nowhere.
Then again, considering how myopic people in the bay area can be, I
shouldn't be surprised.
they are apparantly big enough to be a reference point in an article (Long
Thaw though? Really?? ever HEARD of NWOBHM?)
Jesus Lizard + Jane's Addiction?
Members of more famous bands, Victims Family, Bottles and Skulls,
Fleshies, etc.
And Phil from Lower Forty-Eight on drums, who is one of the best drummers
around period.
Oh also:
There is more to life then myspace:
Triclops
