Equal Worses is a new band, but so far they’re showing tons
of promise. Dr. Philosophy formed the band at the beginning of September,
though I doubt even he expected the success it would become. Despite being its
creator, Dr. Philosophy is not the lead singer of the band. In fact, his
musical instrument of choice is a tall wooden stick, which can occasionally be
heard in the background of their songs (but is mostly used to keep the rest of
the band in check when they get too rowdy). It’d be impossible to list all of
the band members and their respective instruments, as it has a total of 27
members. However each member contributes to the band in a way that leaves
listeners intrigued, if not completely confused.
Most of Equal Worses’s songs are composed of a cacophony of
sounds that can be portrayed as a deep battle between ideas that are equally as
bad, hence the name Equal Worses. My personal favorite song by Equal Worses is
“The Absurdist Existentialism of a Nihilist.” This track is 47 minutes long,
and consists of, guitar rifts, triangle melodies, some a capella work, and an
amazing oboe solo. However the highlight of the song is a hostile argument
concerning the meaning of life. The band never reveals what the meaning of life
is, but the song definitely gets you thinking.
Unfortunately, none of Equal Worses music can be found
online. However, if you’re dying to witness the band’s antics, it can be found
in room 201 during 6th period.
