The History of Ace Bushy Striptease Ace Bushy Striptease began as a four person vanity project but we slowly realised that we weren't all going to be able to have things our own way. Now the band is more a vehicle of compromise and seething resentment beneath the surface than anything else and we kind of like it that way. Arjun plays the guitar and likes Sigur Ros, Jeremy plays the drums and likes Mclusky, Meryl plays the singing and likes Metallica and Simon plays the bass and likes Huggy Bear. We have electric noises as well but we have to make a computer play them as we don't have enough hands. Ace Bushy Striptease really shouldn't work: Meryl hates women in rock despite being a lady herself. Arjun likes EVERY MUSIC EVARRRR and his lust for Chocolate Rain leaves little to the imagination. Jeremy kills another pre-teen girl with every hit of his 'snare'. Simons obsession with the aesthetics of lo-fi American independent music in the late 80s and 90s will sabotage any success or forward momentum the band fluke up from anywhere. We make fanzines about ourselves in a narcissistical bum fuck luddite prick tease kinda way. We write our name anywhere as long as there is enough space on the wall and enough blood in our fingers. We shut our hands in doors to make our playing sound more like we just shut our hands in a door. Watch as we sterilise a policeman in front of you, castrate him and eat the evidence. He'll gain weight faster after this you know, it'll help us accelerate meat production. WE LOVE COMEDY ROCK AND LIBERTINES COVER BANDS!
