Mindless Self Indulgence is what you will be called when the music that you make has no chance in hell of getting you laid (unless maybe by a band member), or of making you seem cool in the eyes of your p.c. restrained, cookie cutter category demanding, humorless peers. It is also a four piece band of co-ed crazy ass mofo's from N.Y.C., whose name manifests itself during their live shows. Their music is a hybrid of Atari driven, Industrial, New Wave, Soul, Jungle, Hip Hop and Punk with a venomous splash of Attention Deficit Disorder.

Because they have toured with bands such as Rammstein & Soulfly, ICP, Korn & Staind (shoulda been Genitorturers), the Lunachicks, Coal Chamber, Ultraspank, & Relative Ash, Praga Khan, Lords Of Acid, and played shows with Cypress Hill and Orgy...Mindless Self Indulgence has built a loyal (obcessed) and diverse (some are boys, some a girls, some are both) following.

Uppity Cracker, their own label, released "Tight," a very aggressive, tongue-in-cheek 14 track but only about 25 minute long debut C.D.E.P. which featured a rather twisted interpretation of the Method Man classic "Bring The Pain." The James Sisters produced "Tight" mostly in mono in order to purposely sidestep the electronica bandwagon of stale perfection and instead experiment with a more dry & raw James Brown recording style. When considering that this involved hundreds of samples, a live band and five tracks of vocals all fighting for minimal sonic space one begins to realize that this was no easy feat.

After picking Elektra from a feeding frenzy of over 20 labels, Little Jimmy Urine set about the task of creating MSIs major label debut full length. "Frankenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy", was the insane result of his effort. This groundbreaking 30 track cd is full of dark humor that simultaneously pokes fun at himself and the cartoonish clichs found in the music and people that have both influenced & annoyed him. Although both cds were produced by The James Sisters, these hyper, stylebending new works also boast the engineering talents of Mario Caldatto Jr., Ray Martin, Lloyd Puckitt, & Chris Flam (DJ Spooky). And in order to avoid silly placement issues usually imposed by record companies, MSI has insisted that all of the tracks on FGWSSS will appear in alphabetical order.
