Rackets & Drapes

Rackets & Drapes are a shock rock band from Denver, Colorado. Their style often combines many musical styles, such as gothic rock, electronica, screamo and alternative metal. Formed in 1996 they haven't enjoyed any international success, although their song Plastic Jesus became vastly popular because of its misinterpretation as being a System of a Down song. The band claims to be Christian, as some of their earlier lyrics prove. They released three full-length albums - Candyland, Trick or Treat and Love Letters from Hell (the latter was once available for a free download through their MySpace fansite) and one EP, titled The Sick and the Beautiful. Since not much is known about the band and the members themselves behave very mysteriously, there is no proof whether the album Iconoclasm, which was planned to be released in 2008, is already out, neither is there a proof that the band is still active.
