Formed in 2002, The Mae Shi are an LA-based experimental pop/rock band from California. Terrorbird, their 59-minute-long debut EP, was a hyper ADD-afflicted hip-hop concept album about monsters and the Old Testament. Having already released four albums and other interesting “projects” (like a documentary and a 2004 mix tape that collected their favorite 1200 songs in under 80 minutes), The Mae Shi are getting ready to release a fifth(!) album that is certain to be crammed full of their trademark “busted electronics, spazzier-than-fuck drums, crazy-ass boogie guitar, distorted caveman bass and throat-destroying vocals”. Details about their new album are still unclear as there is no official release date or title (it may be called either 7XX7 or PWND). However, the released track “Run To Your Grave” is unbelievably catchy and makes The Mae Shi a definite band to watch.
