Captain Chemical WTF picture of the week: a still from our next song video. We leave it to you to speculate on what we're doing, and why. You'll discover the horrific truth soon enough...

Here's your weekly reminder that indie music is WAY better than commercial music... and NAS has the indie music!

It's only been three months since our last album came out, and we're still prepping for live shows this fall. But when we see elite-level human stupidity like this, we simply must start thinking about our NEXT album. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2014/03/03/g...

Indie music is SO much better than commercial music. And the best place to discover it is on the NAS playlists!

Never imagined this was possible for a band that celebrates human stupidity, insists on playing in multiple genres, and purveys utterly ridiculous lyrics. Yet here we are. THANK YOU to everyone who has listened to our madness online, bought our CDs, and/or come to see us perform!

You can listen to the same old commercial music... and you can see where that has gotten us as a species. Or for a refreshing change, discover some new favorite songs by checking out indie artists on the NAS playlists!

NAS is a sort of music collective that gives indie artists exposure and support, so that human creativity and *good* music aren't destroyed by commercial interests. Give any NAS playlist a listen! #stoppayola #IwantmyNAS #indieartists #indiemusic

July 13 is World Rock Day - and there's no better way to celebrate this than to check out some great #indiemusic by under-heard #indieartists in the NAS community!

#StopPayola #songwriter #indiemusic #indieartists Independent artists produce great music that's every bit as good as (and often better than) commercially produced music. But you rarely hear it... unless you listen to NAS artists!

The Captain says...

When artists must pay to get their music heard, only those backed by big money will be heard. Do big companies have *your* taste in music? If you think not, then support independent artists like the NAS community, who make the music you want! #iwantmynas #stoppayola #indieartists #indiemusic

The Capt Chemical Band never stops getting unexpected pleasures. Spotify added our song "Drive Into The Ocean" to their Mitch Easter Radio playlist. Easter produced the early REM albums and is the godfather of jangle rock. Suddenly, our stupid music is in good company! Some friends on here too!

NAS is full of indie artists making good music. Tired of the repetitive grind of commercial music? Check out NAS, where the real creativity in music resides. #indieartists #indiemusic #stoppayola #IwantmyNAS

NAS is like a musical race car. #indieartists playing great #indiemusic . Support your local independent musicians! #iwantmynas #stoppayola

The countdown ends: NEW ALBUM DROPS OVERNIGHT! (It's already live in Australia!) The Captain Chemical merch table looks good with the addition of CDs for our EP True Vacuity. The album streams everywhere starting Monday 30 June. The CD version includes two bonus tracks. High energy musical madness!

The countdown continues: T-MINUS 1 DAY Self love is OK. Marrying yourself is weird. But divorcing yourself is insane! Yet all of that is what one woman did, inspiring Captain Chemical to discuss the issues in the song "Sologamous." Hear the madness on our new EP True Vacuity, out Monday!

The countdown continues: T-MINUS 2 DAYS TRUE VACUITY will be available everywhere on Monday, and the whole world will get to hear what a handful of folks heard yesterday. (bottled farts, snail mucous, cadaver flights, and high energy music.) THANK YOU to all who joined the listening party Thursday!

Never a dull moment with NAS. Hundreds of solid indie musicians churning out great music for the world to enjoy! #stoppayola #indiemusic #IwantmyNAS #indieartists

The countdown continues: T-MINUS 3 DAYS Today is the day! There's a completely free pre-release listening party on Thursday at 5PM eastern! Hear a preview of all the musical madness, including CD bonus tracks. captainchemicalband.bandcamp.com/merch/true-v...

The countdown continues: T-MINUS 4 DAYS Cleaning dog poop is a cutthroat commercial business. An advertising war between Doo Doo Bros and Poop Scoopers is raging; both companies' signs are everywhere! Captain Chemical's take on the dog poop wars is on their new EP True Vacuity, releasing 30 June.

The countdown continues: T-MINUS 5 DAYS Imagine sitting an airplane flight for eight hours... with a corpse on the seat next to you! Yes, this actually happened, and Captain Chemical tells you all about it on their new EP True Vacuity, out 30 June.

The countdown continues: T-MINUS 6 DAYS Would you willingly put snail mucous on your face? Well, you may have been doing this without even knowing it! Snail mucous is an ingredient in many skin care products. Captain Chemical tells you all about it on their new EP True Vacuity, releasing 30 June.

The countdown continues: T-MINUS 8 DAYS Want a pre-release listen to our new EP TRUE VACUITY? Join us on bandcamp.com for a listening party on Thursday June 26 at 5 PM eastern. It's completely free, takes just 40 minutes, and is guaranteed fun! captainchemicalband.bandcamp.com/merch/true-v...

The countdown continues: T-MINUS 9 DAYS Artists will often post a track listing for their upcoming album, but it means little when no one has heard any of the songs yet. HOWEVER, when Captain Chemical posts a track listing, you pay attention - our song titles tell you everything you need to know!

The countdown begins: T-MINUS 10 DAYS 12 months since the last Capt Chem album, a whole year of WTF, OMG, and stupidity for us to cram into a six song EP. On TRUE VACUITY, we've done our best. From farts in a jar to snail mucous facials, it's all you need to know about the decline of our species.

Our new song "Drive Into The Ocean" has been out less than 3 weeks, but it has already hit the top 10 most listened to Captain Chemical songs of all-time! We're not certain who is listening, but whoever you are THANK YOU! We hope you're enjoying the song... and all of our other musical madness!

May isn't over, but it's already the best month the Captain Chemical Band has ever experienced in terms of streams on Spotify. "Drive Into The Ocean" had over 1000 streams its first week alone. Wow, you sure are a bunch of sick moth- I mean, thank you for sharing the musical madness!

When we wrote our song "Drive Into The Ocean," we were thinking of land vehicles plowing into the water. But life is funny. Now ships are turning up in people's backyards. What's next? Alien spacecraft landing on our planet? (Oh wait, we already did two songs about that.) apnews.com/article/norw...

If you haven't heard Captain Chemical's new track "Drive Into The Ocean", how can you live with yourself? Get on it now! And if you have heard it, why don't you just tell your friends and listen again? Help us fire the algorithm. Besides, the world needs a laugh! open.spotify.com/album/7xGtZo...

It's here! Captain Chemical's new single "Drive Into The Ocean": three true stories of next-level human driving stupidity set to great music! Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/7xGtZo... other music links: lynkify.in/song/drive-i... YouTube video: youtu.be/kEYdOu6jhZU Help us fire the algorithm!

New Captain Chemical music comes out MONDAY 19 MAY, with world premieres on Uncle Funkbeard's Indie Music Showcase (music) and Clysmic's Indie Boom Shockwave (video). Until then, enjoy the back story of the band's wardrobe... volume up!

Avoid artificial music! Remember that AI music is nothing but the regurgitation of musical ideas that started with actual humans. Recognize the human sources of creativity by supporting indie musicians and artists!

Here's a first world problem: Our new EP, coming out early June, had the working title "Vapid Drivel." However, it turns out that another band actually put out an album with that title in 1997. Go figure! So, our new EP will now be called "True Vacuity" - six true stories of human stupidity!

VAPID DRIVEL is the first new material released in nearly a year from Captain Chemical. This six-song EP includes the single "Drive Into The Ocean", an ode to the most absurd GPS mistakes that really happened... and it's coming in May. Get your giggle caps ready and stay tuned!

Coming fairly soon... in time for summer! Everything you've wanted to hear about: Selling Farts In A Jar, Flying With The Dead, Scoopin' The Dog Poop, Snail Mucous Face, Drive Into The Ocean, and more! #captainchemical #captainchemicalband #morecowbell #music #musicalmadness #tucson #tucsonmusic

Sean Faust’s best song (IMHO), and a worthy cause too!
