EX MODELS

I once watched Ex Models clear a venue from it's 500+ sell-out capacity, down to (and I swear down I'm not exaggerating here) less than 25 people by the middle of the first song of their set.

Admittedly they only played one song in their set, and this consisted of a single chord being chugged for over an hour whilst the band stood virtually motionless centre-stage, evidently in an attempt to piss off the bunch of haircuts who had obviously only come to see support act Test Icicles.

Funny thing is, listening to Ex Models' 2003 masterpiece Zoo Psychology now, you release where Test Icicles got at least 55% of their ideas from (the other 45% being Korn - obviously), and where Liars got at least 82% of their ideas from (the other 18% being wearing gold Christian Joy leggings - obviously).
