and stay goofy.
Rising like a Phoenix out of the glorious dumpster fire of Portland, Oregon, Master Splinter has a simple mission: to melt faces as the booties shake.
Essentially a mutating musical vision born from the manic mind of founder Mick Arrell, tempered by the Earthy ingenuity of Bassist/Vocalist Jason Schauer, the Master cares not about trends, rules, divides or barriers. The Master, maintaining a slice of hard rock on the top and heavy metal on the bottom, sandwiches influences and energies from all corners of the musical universe. Slathered with thick, sloppy dollops of metaphorical and fantastical storytelling, the products delivered by the Sensei offer up sonic superstorms that tell tales untold. Music with authenticity, irreverence, depth and absurdity. Come for the riffs, stay for the stories.
The Sensei welcomes all into his vast musical universe. None shall be turned away, for unity is what is being forged. We are all one.
