Now I can actually just show people what I mean when they ask me what Thomas Truax is like. Usually its just followed by a "errmmm well, if you took, a Mad Scientist and locked him in a musical scrap yard, then threw the whole mix in a blender and sent put it in a timewarp stuck between 1920 and 2020 then you'd get something entirely nothing like tea..."

@imjustmade There's still a Scary Aerial, and a Stringaling, etc and many other songs of course, this is just a 'brief' introduction to some of what can happen at a Truax show, not meant to be exhaustive ; )
