The IOMB, the world's only percussion-centered electronic marching band, prides itself on bringing sophisticatedly savage, avant-garde music to the people, when and where it is least expected. We live for the stunned faces, staggering delight and the awkward cross-eyed wonder that spreads across unsuspecting crowds whenever we turn the corner.
A recent press shout-out in Denver's Westword sums it up best;
"some odd electronic music accompanied by the sounds of percussion
filled the air. Turns out the sounds were emanating from members of the
Itchy-O Marching Band... A lot of people probably had no idea what was
going on, but Itchy-O sure did bring smiles to a lot of faces..." Tom

We're preciously close at reaching our $3,000 goal on Kickstarted to record an album, make a documentary and continue on with our nonchalant mayhem. Have you seen us around? Dig us? Think about donating. We have swag to give, in return:
