The Advantage
The Advantage was formed in 1998 in Nevada City. The goal of the band is to cover all the music from the 800 or so original games for the original 8-bit Nintendo system before they die.
Numbers
Numbers thrash the dancefloor by tangling the limbs of new wave, no wave, punk, disco, garage, and synth-pop.The San Francisco trio was formed in 2000 by vocalist and drummer Indra Dunis and two ex-Xerobot members: guitarist Dave Broekema and keyboardist Eric Landmark.
Experimental Dental School
"Like many, if not most bands from the area, Oakland's Experimental Dental School don't quite fit in with any other bands. This guitar-drum-organ trio uses a wide variety of samples and strange objects turned into musical instruments to create their sound, to surprising and pleasing effect. The band's full-length debut, Hideous Dance Attack!!! was recently released to excited, if not baffled critical acclaim."
