Capacitor (band)

Capacitor are an American electronic rock band from, formed in 1988 at by Keith van Schoor (lead vocals), Víctor "V-Dawg" Palomo (rapping), Kimbra "Kiki Starr" Hovorka (lead guitar), Rodrigo Álvarez (rhythm guitar), Lottie Williams (bass), Carter Furtick (keyboards), and Joshua Furtick (drums). The group later added turntablist Aashid "Ashy-C" Seymour soon after forming. Blending elements of British rave music, West Coast hip hop and thrash metal with cryptic and ironic lyrics, often satirizing left and right-wing political influence in mainstream culture, the band began to attract attention during the early 1990s, and enjoyed critical and commercial success during the mid-to-late-1990s. Rolling Stone has called them "the antiheroes of not only dance music, but two eras of 90s rock."
