Members of Racebannon, Rep Seki, and The
Watercolour, etc. What happens when creepy guys
try to sound cute. The idea is to write short
little ditties for all of the kids. We like
puppies, kittens, babies, and puffy stickers.
Please give us ice cream sandwiches.
Rapider Than Horsepower was formed in November
of 2001 by then drummer Josh Bonati, Racebannon
vocalist Mike Anderson, ex Rep Seki guitarist
Mike Dixon, and Racebannon bassist Chris
Saligoe. Shows were played, a concept demo was
recorded, and the rest was history. Initially
only offering the demo on 3" CDs that were
handmade by the band, the recordings were then
transfered to lathe-cut vinyl in New Zealand
and about 50 of these records were distributed
to friends and family. Since then, Rapider has
changed its line-up after losing drummer Josh
Bonati, who moved to Baltimore to pursue a
graduate degree in engineering at John's
Hopkins. Rob Smith took over the drum stool in
his absence and the band debuted their new
line-up (and a few new tunes) at Bloomington
Fest 2002. Rapider signed with Essay Reocrds
(SA) in December 2002, and since then, we've
just been drinking martinis, laying out by the
ocean, and trying to please the kiddies with
quality ditties about corporate products.
Rapider released the first CD of a two-part
saga, entitled "Stage Fright Stage Fright" on
June 3, 2003. This is available via SA Records
(Secretly Canadian Distribution), Amazon.com,
Insound.com, and virtually most independant
record stores nationwide. (You might have
trouble finding our records at Sam Goody and
Best Buy!) Part Two, entitled "My Big Night",
will be released sometime in September. Both
CDs will be issued on a limited edition run
vinyl LP...compliments of LevelPlane Records.
(Thanks Greg Drudy) Please buy these albums.
Currently, our goals include getting a chance
to tour with Sonic Youth and/or The Roots....or
Tomahawk. We DO play birthday parties.

▄▓▀ ▀▓▄
hXc was founded with one sole purpose: to help unknown
and underground bands get the recognition they deserve.
If, upon listening to one of our releases, you decide
that you like a certain band, support them! Buy their
merchandise, go to their shows, help them out in any
way you can. We release for the benefit of the scene,
as we believe the mp3 format is an effective medium
for the discovery of new artists.
CONTACT:
If you can think you can help us in any way
(by providing us with rips, dumps, bncs, affils)
and would like to join a group of individuals from
around the world dedicated to the hardcore/punk/metal
genres, drop us a line at hxc@hushmail.com or contact
us through the usual channels.
