Traditional Balinese mythology says Rangda is a child-eating demon queen who leads an army of evil witches against the forces of good. We beg to differ! Rangda is actually a trinity of hardened men -- Chris Corsano, Ben Chasny, and Sir Richard Bishop-- who've combined forces to become the musical equivalent of a child-eating demon. OK, so they did take their name from the aforementioned myth. But who are we to say they're aren't really, in actuality, channeling this terrifying creature? Well, I guess we just said it -- the thrashed-out bliss of Rangda evokes sounds straight from the mouth of a child-eating demon-queen. Lock up your babies. Lock up your wives. Hell, lock up your husbands, everyone will be eaten -- see it live!!!!
