Classic Avant-Prog. "U TOTEM were the avant-rock supergroup that combined members from 5UU'S and MOTOR TOTEMIST GUILD. The original line up was Emily Hay (voice, flute, piccolo); Sanjay Kumar (piano, electric keyboards, sitar) Eric Johnson (bassoon, contrabassoon, soprano sax) James Grigsby (guitar, bass, vibraphone, tapes) and David Kerman (drums, percussion, tapes). Both records have many similarities with the music of Henry Cow, John Cage, Conlon Nancarrow, Frank Zappa and Univers Zero.

U TOTEM are a great example of the RIO / avant garde genre. The use of instruments as piccolo, sitar, and sax instead the classic rock instruments makes their music something very close to a soundtrack (a very dark a surrealistic one) and reaches high points of emotion and musical poetry. Highly recommended to any RIO fan." - from ProgArchives.
