What is "hangedup"

Hangedup are an experimental rock group from Montreal, Canada. They are a two-piece band, featuring Genevieve Heistek ( Sackville, The Mile End Ladies String Auxiliary, Set Fire to Flames, HṚṢṬA, Land of Kush) on Viola and Eric Craven (Sackville, Shortwave, HṚṢṬA, formerly Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band) on drums and percussion. Their sound can be described as a viola put into loops, with much percussion (sometimes using selfmade instruments).

They formed in 1999, and were signed in Montréal by the independent Constellation Records label; Sackville was also signed there by the same company.

Hangedup is the self-titled album by Hangedup. It was released in May 2001 on Constellation Records. Its catalog number is CST016.

Ian Ilavsky plays bass on tracks 3 and 8. Efrim Menuck provides additional overdubs on Bring Yr Scuba Gear.
