OK, don’t sue us under the trade description act. We can’t find a MySpace for this band. However, they are so good that we have to give you their website address. This lot make music out of vegetables! Bloody vegetables!
Made up of eleven people and a couple of visual artists and sound engineers, the Vienna Vegetable Orchestra have been wowing people around the world for over a decade with one of the stranger ways of creating sounds.
We always thought vegetables were there for being eaten or for a desperate housewife to relieve herself with. We’ll never look at a lettuce, pumpkin or onion again without wanting to make a funky number out of it.
[More...] If that’s not good enough, for the encore of a gig, the band smash up their instruments and make soup out of it for everyone! Fuck rock n roll with all your boozy antics. Vegetable rock should be the way forward for everyone!
Honestly, the Vienna Vegetable Orchestra is the best thing to come out of Austria since Arnold Schwarzenegger – and even that is clutching at straws.

At first we assumed it would be a modern day version of the classic Greek myth about Medusa and her ability to turn anyone into stone.

The wicked witches of New York – otherwise known as Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda from Sex And The City – had somehow slithered on to the big screen to torture cinemagoers everywhere. And, after just getting over this initial shitfest, our blood pressure has soared again – we’ve learnt that a sequel has just been commissioned.
