---------------------------

... These tracks of recorded sound represent spontaneous and happenstance creations. They are auditory translations or mirrors of physiological depression, ecstasy, and hope. You might not find your reflection in these mirrors.

...the inception occurred in Baltimore Maryland March of 1999 followed by sporadic deliveries up until the present time period. What started 12 years ago as a memberless 4 track cassette recording in the corner of an empty white room with no windows, was heavily influenced by philosophy and psychedelics. It was never intended for ears outside of that room. Over time it has morphed into several collaborating members, split releases and a full live band. But the dogma has never changed.

Mission Dogma:

The project currently practicing and known in full as the U.S.S.A. Pleasuredome can be measured by these few rules, which we tend to constantly break.

1) full use of surroundings as limited resources

2) layering abstract sound with intuition and luck

3) original one time performances

4) lots of head nodding

5) getting lost in the process

6) unpracticed and defenseless revelation

7) a meaningful mistake

"USSA Pleasuredome possesses the instrumental philosophy of Tortoise, the dream

beats and waves of Bowery Electric, the soundtrack sensibilities of the Boards of

Canada, and the LSD trickery of The Butthole Surfers. But not quite that good."

- the totally madeup dream review from Pitchfork.com
