Let's do a little rock 'n' roll math, shall we? If we were to take members of Bacchus and Kill Cupid and put them together in a band, what would likely be the result? Keep in mind that Bacchus and Kill Cupid are both utterly ridiculous for very different reasons: Bacchus make monolithic heavy metal and chose a name that is this close to just calling themselves "Satan"; Kill Cupid are a Motorhead-ish pastiche of everything that leather pants and hairspray conjure up in your mind. They're two great tastes that taste great together. Members of these bands have joined forces as Electric Falcons - a name that couldn't be more perfect if it tried. I don't know what it'll sound like, but if ever there were a place to experience Electric Falcons, it'd have to be in a record store. Mind the head-banging.

Showtime,
Someone informed me that a member of the Electric Falcons was also a member of a band called Kascadia. I am not familiar with Kascadia, and looking online I could find no evidence of their existence, let alone any music of theirs, so I just decided to leave it out. Better to leave it out than to act as if I'd heard it.
