The Best or the Worst Myspace Band Page Ever?

Posted by on Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 11:15 AM

Take a look at this myspace profile for Cali artist Baby Sloth Spirit. Australian music blog Rose Quartz pretty accurately described it as "garish Angelfire detritus including a walking radioactive cat, rainbow Ferraro-style aerobics GIFs and a Shaquille O'Neal Shazam totem replete w/ neon MS Paint graffiti art." Yup, that pretty much sums it up.

Sometimes the hipster eyesore aesthetic totally works for me. I happen to dig this page (though, sonically speaking, Baby Sloth Spirit's analog seances help wash down the bitter pill of day-glo junk food optics). It must just be the '90s kid in me, because I'm also fond of college-age electronic duo Teengirl Fantasy's angelfire website. Although to be honest, it's more the idea of it that appeals to me, rather than the site itself. If you're feeling really brave, try this sub-page. I hope you had your coffee and your psilocybin this morning.
