This song absolutely rules, which is why I posted it. However, I tried to come up with the appropriate adjective to describe the band name for way too long and, in the end, chose an intentionally incendiary one. Maybe there is some inside joke re the name, I don't know. But it just doesn't add up to me. That being said, dumb-ass is not the right descriptor. Do you agree with my editing it to "peculiar"? That seems more appropriate to me. Thanks for the thoughtful comment. I hope you like the site overall... Randy,

STYLISTICALLY, it is undeniably Italo. However, if you listen to the song progression, it is pretty minimal, despite lacking the other hallmarks of that genre. In the end, tho, I deleted the minimal synth classification. More of a potential influence than a genre, really. Thanks for the thoughtful comment!
