Sword Heaven (Acid Marshmallow Video) pretty sure that the Columbus, Ohio duo aren't exactly human. They may have been long enough to be attached to human names, Mark Van Fleet & Aaron Hibbs, but anyone that has listened to their impressive discography of cdrs, LPs, cassettes, or have seen them perform knows what I am getting at. Some speculate they were created as agents of chaos by dark and forbidden gods... Lovecraft's Old Ones are described as unfathomable, so perhaps something was need to bridge the gap-- creatures that seem human to the eye but are so devistatingly powerful, so primal, exploring the darkest shadows of unconscious mind and bringing what they find back with them. They display these horrors like carnival barkers to an audience that looks on with delight, not realizing that their synapses have been stamped with these thoughts and images that will haunt their dreams for years to come. --Steven Slane
