Music

Campus cred

Street: Sum up your band in an offensive quote.

Zach: We're explosive like Iran.

Street: Why should anyone in his right mind come see Leviathan perform?

Zach: I prefer they come not in their right minds.

Ben: When was the last time someone heard a Leviathan? You know you have no idea what that sounds like.

Street: Why should anyone hire you to play a party?

Ben: If you don't feel like talking with your guests, hire us.

Zach: If you want to get in every girls' pants at your party at the same time, hire us.

Street: Describe your sound in haiku form.

Leviathan: Blow everyone's mind

Insert sound of cymbal here

Was it good for you?

Street: What makes your music any different than that of the countless other frat-rock bands?

Blake: We play music, first of all.

Street: Does your music save lives?

Ben: No.we're Leviathan. Leviathans eat people.

Blake: But Kirk is an EMT, so if shit goes down he can save your life, I guess.

Street: How certain are you that your music will bring about the Second Coming?

Kirk: Well Zach's Jewish part of the time, when it gets him out of school and gets him to SDT mixers.

Street: On a scale from one to blackout, how schwasted do you get before a show?

Ben: Long story short, Kirk isn't allowed to drink anymore

Street: Since starting Leviathan, how has your sex life changed?

Zach: We're drowning in pussy. No, seriously.

Street: Do you have groupies or, as you might know them, sorostitutes ?

Kirk: We don't have groupies. We don't have slores either.

Street: If Thomas Hobbes were alive today, what would he say about the band, if anything?

Ben: "This musical troupe stands as strong evidence for my hypothesis that the life of man is nasty, brutish, and short."

Street: What's the best part about being in a band?

Kirk: Loss of hearing.

Zach: Dry handjobs.

Ben: Sea of pussy.

Blake: Making it good for you.

Leviathan (www.myspace.com/leviathanpenn) will be performing at St. Anthony's Hall (3637 Locust Walk) this Friday at 9.
