Having No Sense Of It All


Operator Music Band “Koma”

It’s pretty easy to parse Operator Music Band’s influences, or at least their lineage – elements from well-respected acts like Devo, Stereolab, Broadcast, Neu! and Add N to X are all right there on the surface.

But even that sets up further momentum, as Dara Hirsch counts down the final seconds.
