Three roommates, all musicians, decided to start a band. They named it Basic Radio because, “We didn’t need some band name with a ‘deep’ meaning, we just needed something that would stick,” says Brandon Eisenbeis.

Thursday, May 31 ELECTRO-POP yacht The first time I saw the Art of Noise, the band blew my mind with its video of the song “Close To the Edit.” The rhythms were coarse, but they blended flawlessly with the mechanical sounds and visual theater that accompanied them. No vocals, just a punked-out
