Rated Ex, Ex, X

The Ex-Models are a damn noisy bunch. Two guys and a drum machine (sorry, no sighting of Oneida's Kid Millions, their regular traps-smasher, at this gig) turning out an infernal blend of post-rock and industrial grind. Shahin Motia and Zaxh didn't need a third man to make an infernal racket - but they did get some local assistance ....

"Damn it, we forgot the drummer in New York!"



Shahin prepares to step on it - does every guitarist own a Line 6 Delay nowadays?



Zaxh deploys the masonite.



Singalong action!



It's only natural that X-Ray X should help the Ex-Models, isn't it?



Beat it!



Hooray for earplugs.
