Spaztikolon (n. Spaz·tic·co·lon):

A five-musician outfit influenced by the diverse roots of jazz, hip-hop, ska, funk, and punk rock. Using the concept of a basic jazz ensemble to comprise their instrumentation, Spaztikolon combines upbeat brass licks with a thick, earth quaking rhythm section to create the effect of an X-rated lounge act on ephedrine. The vocals provide a melodic overlay through the use of three-part harmonies, fast-paced rhymes and literal dialogue, transforming with every song and every musical genre presented. As a result, the Spaztikolon song list attempts to tackle multiple forms of music at once, giving the band a sound that most audiences cannot define or categorize. Instead, the urge to get up and dance becomes the main priority of listeners.

The current Spaztikolon five-piece has been playing the New Jersey and New York scenes for over a decade.  Shows performed in New York City include Paul Colby's The Bitter End, National Underground, Uncle Mike's, Meow Mix, Arlene's Grocery, Continental, Otto's Shrunken Head, Uncle Charlie's Lounge, Sidewalk Cafe, Club Midway, The Underscore, Desmond's Tavern, Lion's Den, Elbow Room, Opaline, and Acme Underground.  Shows in New Jersey include the Melody Bar, Lovesexy, Plum Street Pub, Court Tavern, Budapest Cocktail Lounge, Harvest Moon, Marita's Cantina, Maxwell's, Packees Pub, McGuinn's Place, Hooligans, The Saint, and the Polo Pub.  Other venues include the New Jersey Unscene Festival & Showcase (sponsored by WDHA and The Aquarian Weekly) and Rutgers University's Springfest with Busta Rhymes and Moe.  Perhaps the most important achievement in their musical career, however, was the successful ending of world hunger in the year 2057.
