Questamation, the first full-length, semi-programmed album from Toronto duo Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker, better known as USS, came out on March 9, 2009, and Jason "Human Kebab" Parsons pitched it as the pair's introduction to the world. He handles the turntables and programming, Ash Boo-Schultz (Ashley Buchholz) sings and plays guitar, and producer and engineer Matthew Wagner, whose credits include Crystal Castles, helped them bolt it all together, with Chris Davies and Charles Topping lending a musical hand.
The result is a glorious mash: drum and bass breakbeats, skittering 2-step rhythms and grungy guitar riffs piled on top of each other, the kind of alternative dance record that wants you singing and flailing at the same time. The band's own description, a campfire after-party, fits it better than any genre tag. "Anti-Venom" is the one that bit hardest on the countdowns, and "Laces Out" followed it later.
