AHHHMMMM.... ASSTRALIA'S VERY OWN ONE MAN GOODTIME RAGTIME SPEW BAND BUSTS HIS BAGS WITH A CHEESE-DRAWER OF FINGERNAILED GARBAGE BLUES GUITAR NECKING AT THE SPEED OF A MAGI-MIX, ONE LEG STRADDLED ON A BROWN SUITCASE, THE OTHER BEATING UP A BEATEN UP SOMETHIN ELSE, MUMBLING INCOMPREHENSIBLE RUBBISH THROUGH A CHINESE STORE LOUDHAILER AND SPITTING ON A BUNCH OF STOLEN PLASTIC FARMYARD ANIMALS. MADE FOR CHICKENS BY ROBOTS, HALF BLIND, HALF SIMPLE, AND HALF BACKYARD MAVERICK....

You could say contrived things like this:

"If you really want a problem buy this guys record."

 "Lo-fi. No-fi. Fast and deranged."

"Outsider bent-backwards-blues."

 IT IS some kind of blues music, some kind of deranged old early blues and the ragtime tradition then fucked up by technology and crippled tonality, earache noise and abusive slapstick sound effects.  Fast fingerpicking weird guitar interrupted by drunken tempo changes and warped backwards sounds. Its cartoon blues music and to see this show you will laugh with confusion and need to drink yourself into comprehension afterwards.

 "THIS IS NO ROCK AND ROLL! ITS JUST AS DUMB BUT MORE FUCKED UP!"

 Rubber jumpsuit, blind boy fullershit, blind baked, and scum house are all noted down as heavy inflences on MFCBRs music. He also cites Lightenin Shitkins as a lyrical advisor. He also admits to being in possession of the original Robert Johnston acoustic guitar- Its a piece of shit, i dont play it.

 He regularly wears a home-made chicken mask, made from bathrobes. It stinks of sweat and beer and people often ask “Does he ever wash that thing?”.... the answer is NO. He is just about totally blind and somebody once said

“He reminds me of Stevie Wonder, 
but fucked up.”
 

Done played on the back of trucks in Australia, in the basement of an exorcism church in Belgium, gay clubs in Brussels,  ontop of a garbage bin in France, on the beach in Portugal, in brothels, bars and bratwurst stands, in backyards, bullpits, and at barbecues . Hes a one-man-band made of weird and like nothing.

MADE FOR CHICKENS BY ROBOTS came into the world towards the beginning of the one-man-band onslaught that has gone rabid over the past few years….. obviously inspired to try a four limb disco by father Bob Log 111, he began with a show in an enormous Spanish nightclub sometime in 2005. Through 2006 he worked on co-ordinating his thing, his legs and arms and teeth and suitcase, sitting in his caravan in the backyard sticks of Asstrailer. During the peak birthing stage of the myspace economy, MFCBR found similar lonely idiots all over the world. IN 2007 he organised and promoted his first international tour, all across Europe, with THE MYSTERIOUS TAPE MAN (NZ) and JUNIOR DISORDER (Germany) with the release of his debut album “momo hokey”on Stink Magnetic Records. The album was regarded “the work of a backyard blues maverick” by Australian national ABC radio. As the international one-man-band world widened and deepened and grew through 2008 MFCBR self-released a few rare EPs (In The Beercan, The Wrong Brain & Piece Of Thing) and was included on a slew of European compilations. He met THE DAD HORSE EXPERIENCE (Germany) via an internet dating site and together they schemed up THE B.O.M.B. FESTIVAL (Bremen One Man Band Festival) set for it’s inaugural debut April 2008 which included appearances by DEAD ELVIS, BECKY LEE, TWO TEARS, and MR OCCHIO. So off the ragtime retard went back to Europe for a major tour, the release of Got Shine 7” on Shit In Can Records (fr) and On The Trash Truck 7” on Gut Feeling (de), he played Germany, Holland, Belgium, Spain, France, Switzerland and Portugal and confused every living person who saw the show. Most of them danced and drank. He sometimes wears a terry-towelling chicken wig piece. Since then MFCBR has been included on various SQUOODGE RECORDS releases: “M Is The Only One Man Band” and “World Wide One Man Band” compilation- as Australia’s leading one-man-band fool.

And he only heard of Hasil Adkins in 2010 when he saw a video of him throwing a piano from the roof of a car…. In his spare time he listens to Cypress Hill and Napalm Death.

In 2009 MFCBR toured Australia and New Zealand and then decided to hang up the chicken hat and cheap suitcase for a spell, walk back to the caravan and domesticate kangaroos for the international market. After a few financially lucrative years at this he decided to dust off his 4-track cassette machine and old plastic microphones, yank out his brown guitar (rumoured to be the original guitar of Robert Johnston) out of the ceiling and start recording again… AND in 2011 released a new compact disc "wump dang filla" on Baboso Records and a double-A-side 7" record on Gut Feeling records "She's Fulla Gas/Get Off My Sausage". The releases were followed by another hectic and obliterating tour of the Europes with shows in basements, art galleries, fascist clubs and hit joints. Moving more towards the robot element of the project in 2012 the latest 4-song-single will be delivered in April "The Wrong Brain: Episode 2" on Germany's OFF LABEL RECORDS.
