Ex Models songs The third album by New York City's Ex Models offers another sophisticated, deconstructionist, full-tilt assault on the senses. For CHROME PANTHERS the Ex Models have brought along fellow noisemakers Kid Millions, and the result is an abrasive sonic journey that draws on elements of industrial, trance, hardcore, and progressive rock.

Zoo Psychology succeeds because it reigns in the more extreme tendencies of such music. It constricts weirdness around damaged disco rhythms ("Zoo Love"), deconstructs post-punk down to the sound of one guitar and the space between its notes ("Pink Noise"), and renders the right to go bananas downright pogo-worthy ("Hey Boner"), all without losing an ...

Ex Models albums "There is no inspiration," begins "It's on Television," "only calculation." While the song may be an attack on the boob tube, or considering the rest of the lyrics, a dissection of a personal relationship, it's tempting to regard it a confession of the band's approach to music. Their angular sound could be considered a crafty synthesis of several post-punk, post-rock, and ...
