MURDER MURDER
Murder Murder is a long-standing project of "sax maniac" Paul Costuros of San Francisco, that applies an anarchic hardcore ethos to the free jazz genre. For the past 15+ years, alongside Paul, Murder Murder has featured a rotating cast of local underground musicians (from the classically trained to the self taught), many of whom know nothing about playing jazz. The band has toured Europe and Japan, as well as playing its fair share of local clubs, warehouses, and squats. The "absolutely no guitars!" rule may have been broken once or twice, but is mostly enforced.
