US Eskimo:
This band released their first album, Jack, on Long Pig Records in 1990 but are best known for their 1995 release The Further Adventures of Der Shrimpkin. Hailing from the San Francsico Bay-area band - and often compared to Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart and The Residents - Eskimo mix punk, funk and improvised jazz with a warped sense of humor and outlandish imagery. Their most recent tracks are web-only releases from 2001, although the band appears to have recently re-formed.
