what...?

im confused...what IS this? killer lifestyle has the most popularity and i dont understand it...is this screamo techno punk? thats the vibe im getting

Decent.

Kind of reminds me of a more modernized "Rolling Stones."

The real Austin Pong is win

First, in response to the previous reviewer who wondered if this is "screamo punk:" no. Just no.

Pong ain't punk, and it definitely ain't scream-o. Pong is much closer to Jell-O than scream-o: Pong gets down and shakes to the beat, rocks back and forth, and is part synthetic/part processed natural byproduct.

Kids these days didn't know the era of Austin from which Pong's members originate: a time before City Councigreedevelopers forced out epic venues like Liberty Lunch, Electric Lounge, and the old Steamboat from downtown Austin in a vain attempt to clone Portland's "Pearl District," a collection of yuppie arcologies reminiscent of the children spawned when Blade Runner raped the Stepford Wives on the set of 90210, leaving a path of over-priced, vacant office towers in their wake.

Before the yuptocalypse, in which the "bubble jungle" or "bubble city" (as, it seems, Pong refers to this crapitalist failmare) arose, some of Pong's members (as the band, Ed Hall) delighted us with 8mm film loops projected atop experimental rock straight from area research labs, attaining a degree of recognition amongst those who deserved to know.

Now, much like the protagonist of The Never Ending Story (who, youngins will note, saved imagination from the glue factory), Pong bears the torch of true Austin rock. Pong are the clerics who don't need to tour because they are already in Mecca. They're busy turning back the cement trucks from the gates of the forbidden forest; if you really wanna get down, then I suggest you pony up for a Southwest Airlines ticket to paradise -- and bring your gettin' down shoes.

If you don't get Pong, that's not anyone else's fault.

Bubble City, Pong
