I think Neurot Recordings popularized them to a crowd that normally wouldn't hear them. I know Elixirs the first thing I heard from them because of Neurot.

Two contradictory impressions: First, the music is phenomenally good. Second, the "biography," which is clearly a self-description, is so self-indulgent, and uninformative, that I am inclined to say f*** off. Go wank yourself in private. Please, let me admire you by telling me what your are up to, without asking me to stroke your member according to your perverse sense of self-satisfaction.

waiting for History of the Visitation to arrive in the mail. Just listened to Elixirs again today while taking a walk through snowfall. Masterful music.

As much as I love Guapo - I cannot stand Elixirs. It doesn't help much that the album ruined two of my favourite Guapo tracks, namely Heliotrope/Selenotrope.

Guapo is one of the most well-known/critically acclaimed "avant-garde" bands in Britain... not that this is saying much in the grand scheme of things, granted, but lets just say being a hired-hand for this lot means you won't need to whore yourself out to ad-hoc bar bands, failing international pop stars, and give guitar lessons quite as often :P

You find it funny that someone just arbitrarily decides to speak his mind? Jeez, you must live day to day surrounded by quite modest people! ;) Well, if you want to think otherwise that is of course your prerogative, but I have a feeling that Torabi views it as just a job.

>>Sedwards and Torabi are really just glorified hired hands: Maybe on record, but I've seen them live, and Torabi improvises around the melodies a helluva lot, so he's obviously contributing on some creative level as well. But the music just doesn't allow him to explore any fascinating or intriguing territory.

Again, bashiechan is way off. Sedwards and Torabi are really just glorified hired hands. O'Sullivan has been writing nearly all of Guapo's music for the last few albums, and that dude is a case in point for experimental music being non-self-indulgent and continually fascinating.

The more I hear this band, the less I like it. It's such flatulent music, self-indulgent avant-garde bullshit that disappears up its own arsehole, is overtly focused on image and experimental masturbation and masquerades as meaning something but ultimately is little more than intellectual snobbish drivel in the form of sounds. And with a band that includes James Sedwards and Kavus Torabi (both of whom are/were in bands that are fucking brilliant), this definitely equates to considerably less than the sum of its parts.
