Michael Markowski Do you like music? Does it help if the music makes you think as much as it makes you move your feet? Do you like your music filled with hooks and volume? How about if the music will give you the courage to strike up a conversation with a person you want to speak with? These questions and more will be answered when you listen to the sweet sounds of IfIHadAHiFi. Just remember that you too may never go home after listening. Favorite track: The Wrist.

Conan Neutron Restless and relentless, Ifihadahifi are back after a 7 year gap (!), to assault you and entice you with a batch of highly anticipated new songs. Frenetic, yet assured, Nervy, yet insistent. There are many a hook to be had, but all density is intentional. Like the T-1000 that is also the life of the party, Ifihadahifi require both close scrutiny and your deserved attention.

RIYL: Devo, Brainiac, Les Savy Fav, Sonic Youth, a head boppable Skynet takeover.

Favorite track: Death Van.

Point a weapon at the gym teacher As the film director yells "cut" Exploitation has become vocation And I can't snap out of this rut The campus inspector is a metal detector From 1984 Dad thought this was a black comedy But I can't take anymore The gremlins in my queue have shown their hand The things under my bed are on demand

Cue the flashing light and the muted sighs There's a disembodied voice on the end of your line I hear the hitch in your breath and the glint in your eye You know i can't call out, you know i can't dial nine I can hear your yellowing smile Spit antipathy, airs and bile Punch down at the plebeians You bargain basement comedians We're working for you now There's a pressure in the nerve behind my eyes As i subordinate and you dehumanize This carpal tunnel's not affected by compression on the wrist (If you don't pay it's on somebody else's dime) I wanna punch my way out, but i can't make a fist (I dropped some change so i could buy some more time)

They're beaming signals in my house Your love is fading, they're triangulating now My door is locked, my windows down Can't tell which one's the lion and which one's the mouse I'm a hot take on line one And I never see the sun I'm a good guy with a gun Hope i don't run into a better one Groom Lake you're on the air force lot Are you using this line properly or not I've got opinions, you've got sway I've got opinions, help me make them go away I see an X in front of me I see a hidden enemy There's not a lot of time, give us something quick Catch the wave, give us something that will stick

Make way, make way, make way through the Pick N Save Angry Eddie's got s-s-s-s-somethin' to say The sky above is a dome that's been painted blue Terrific news! Terrific news! Dr. Kent's in the school auditorium Lobbing spitballs at the planetarium Equal time for the Young Earth point of view You know it's true! You know it's true! The filters are dead, all the music's online Your Bat Boy story's as legit as mine Flat Earth, vaccines, bring the eggheads to their knees Space is fake! Space is fake! Sign up, sign in, log on to your free account The rights of the pseudo-journalist are paramount You've got a voice and responsibility too Terrific news! Terrific News! Be the ch-ch-ch-ch-change that you wanna see Cranking out content as long as it's free Dr. Kent don't care about no peer review You know it's true! You know it's true! The Hindenburg's aloft and the Titanic's fine They're tapping out the updates on the wild card line The sky is on fire and everything's fine, whoo

Your stunning vacation photos Took 90 minutes to reach home You met your demise in alien skies I wish you hadn't done it alone We went to the moon on duct tape and spit I guess we'll go to Mars when we feel like it We went to the moon on duct tape and spit We're happy now if we can reach orbit Appraising all the navel gazing's worn me out My Very Eager Memory Just Seems Useless Now Castled rooks & picture books, mneumonic device Exploration's a demonic vice Budgets tabled, books mislabeled Raise a beer to the final frontier
