The Entities Cosmic!!
The Cosmic Elvis Entities
The Cosmic Elvis Entities specialize in an outrageous blend of rock styles that never fails to incite excitement and movement in any club, college, or concert crowd. Playing original music with the occasional apt cover, the COSMIC ELVIS ENTITIES incorporate elements of psychadelia, punk, synth-punk, rockabilly, surf, dream pop and just good ol' rock-n-roll. The energized sound is far from derivative, but if heated under a COSMIC beaker for several eons one would find that they invoke sonic strains of influences as wildly diverse as:
The Who, Beach Boys, Wall of Voodoo, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, New York Dolls, Devo, the Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, Neil Young and Crazy Horse, Alice Cooper, the Doors, Jefferson Airplane, Big Brother and the Holding Company, Frank Zappa, the Buzzcocks, the Pixies, the Rolling Stones and many others who rocked before rock died.
A four piece band comprised of brothers Danny Ray (splish splash splatter crash drums, oohs) and Cosmic Billvis (vocals, fuzz freak guitar) who in 3 decades of virtually monkish devotion (albeit in a monastery with fuzz and feedback furnished in abundance) deeveloped a repertoire of over 150 original tunes - many of which are pulled out for a fresh approach and modern treatment along with freshly inspired ideas ("...I had this idea on the way over to the studio"). They are joined by the work of long term bandmates Scary Gary (bombastic groove bass, scary vocals) and Martian Mark (syntho-manic guitar, vocals) who help to annunciate the COSMIC vocabulary.

Question of the Week:
Who are your favorite bands?
Mark the Martian:
The One Sleeved Cardigans, Eddie Beaver and the Vomits .
Danny Ray:
When I hear a tune and it moves me and shivers are running threw my core the band that made that tune is my favorite! Music is time and place for me.
Scary Gary:
I'll start with the 60's. I like the Dave Clark 5, and I try to emulate the deep bass sound of Rick Huxley,and as many years went by my taste went to Black Sabbath, led zeppelin and deep purple, but now garage rock and psychedelica is what I crave!
Cosmic Billvis:
Jefferson Airplane, Kinks, Hendrix, Buzzcocks, Ramones, Fluffy, Bleach,
