The only reason I say this is because after listening to this very short album you end up wanting more. Mostly an instrumental artistic flaunt \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcBIKE PORN&#8217; does contain some growls, yips and whistles. Though I tend to like to compare local band\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s music to other bands I can only think of two groups that even have a similiar sound; The classic electronic band CAN and New York\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s DRUMS AND TUBA.

Another thing Wumpus has accomplished with \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcBIKE PORN\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 is a theme. Originally written as a movie soundtrack, that was probably a good idea.
