Budda-bio:
BUDDA-BANG! Relentless, Psychedelia, Monster-Slide, Distorted Guitar...Attack!
New York City''s 1992 New Music Seminar presented an intense rush of guitar-driven stimulation to the alternative world of alternative tunes - el Jefe Sativa and his band BUDDA-BANG! August 2000 sees the re-release of the conceptual single and video for "Hairball or Puke?", along with the mind-blowing, 50 minute cd odyssey, SONIC DECAYED - a realization of a state of mind and a statement of realization, a pressure wave of guitariffied sounds for the new millenium and a personification of big apple slice o''life decadence.
Led by the outrageous, slide guitar acrobatics of el Jefe (pronounced heff-ay, which means "chief" or "boss" in spanish), BUDDA-BANG! slid onto the NYC underground scene with the song "Hairball or Puke?", a cascading guitar homage to feline regurgitation, and the surprise hit of the ''92 New Music Seminar. Originally presented to the NMS as a 5-piece band featuring el Jefe on slide guitar/vocals and Cleveland Christie on guitars, BUDDA-BANG! starred 7-year-old guitar sensation Pepito Maldonado, and his cousins, 12 year-old twin sisters Lucinda and Melinda Snachez on bass and drums, respectively. This turned out to be a ruse on el Jefe''s part, smacking of shades of Milli-Vanilli without the dreads. "I knew that the idea of the kids was pretty cool," mused Jefe, "and would generate interest in the band, and in turn, the music. I wanted to get BUDDA-BANG! on the NMS tape, catch some cool bands like Murphy''s Law, Butthole Surfers, Prong, check out the pulse of the corporate rocksuckers and asskissers usually associated with the music industry''s ''hipper-than-thou-seminar'' and eventually put out a 7 inch single and cd. I accomplished that and more, the end justifying the means, so hey!"
The first double a-side 7" single from BUDDA-BANG! contains Eric Calvi''s french-style remixes of the now-epic "Hairball or Puke?" and the stampeding, elastic guitar sounds of "Beat Plastic." As a special sales incentive, a free sample of fake vomit is included with every 7" package. The full-length cd SONIC DECAYED pulsates with el Jefe''s wacky facetiousness and an urgent sense of coping with NYC''s temptations, frustrations, and meditations; always pushed on with a relentless guitar offensive.
BUDDA-BANG! also released a video for "Hairball or Puke?" which received world-wide praise and continues to be shown on IMNTV and more online outlets. BUDDA-BANG!, according to el Jefe, is for anyone who wants to musically hallucinate with something other than the typical pop fodder, pre-packaged fluff that the major labels guarantee will sell through their narrow-minded network of categorized crap. Budda-Bang!, frying your brain like eggs on drugs.
