The 'Pede was the world's loudest heavy-riffing two-man band, years before the White Stripes and Black Keys were accepted by the mainstream. Hard rock with punk and metal overtones. Searing vocals and introspective lyrics.
At the time, most people simply found a power rock duo to be a little perplexing. The resulting lack of label support or promotion pushed Velocipede into obscurity, even while they had songs charting on indie radio.
