Modus Operandi: Take all the parts of disco that don't suck, mix in a dash of post-whatever aural experimentation and voila! instant bi-coastal dance party. Refuse to shake your booty and vocalist/ringleader Nic Offer might force you to with sheer will. P.S. It's pronounced "chk chk chk," "pow pow pow" or any three syllables you like.

In Their Own Words: "I usually say 'pow pow pow,' though I often have to explain it anyway." - Mario Andreoni, guitar
