"The EelWax Jesus Show cast handed out moon pies and even raffled off a toaster, the kind of game-show-like inducements that are now required of any successful recession-era entertainment. In keeping with the nostalgia theme of this column, the multimedia rock show is described as "part Blue Man Group, part They Might Be Giants," but I'd also throw in William Burroughs, Sesame Street, and a very funny Bavarian weatherman."

"Trippy. Memorable. Refreshing...An appealingly oddball meditation on commercialism, conformity and paranoia"
"A divine blend of toe-tapping tunes and shear lunacy. Feral goats would love it!"
"great music, fine performances and mouthwateringly cynical lyrics"
"Eelwax delivers its mournful, nihilistic philosophy in ironic and often amusing doses of self deprecating humor and absurdist non-sequitors"
"Eye-popping! Fabulous, Bizarre, Existential fun!"
"I've spent my whole life side stepping religion. Who knew I'd be saved by Eelwax Jesus? They're like the three way love child of Bowie, The Breeders and William S. Burroughs. It's awesome!"
- Jimmi Simpson, actor, LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN, THE FARNSWORTH INVENTION.
JIMMI SIMPSON made this video for MR. RUMPLE:
"Absolute genius. Should not be missed"
"You guys are sick...I love it"
"I love Eelwax!"
