Talkdemonic

O'Connor said he was at a local club when he heard a voice utter the word "talkdemonic" and he felt it fit his new project perfectly.

[citation needed] Talkdemonic was named "Portland's Best New Band 2005" by the Willamette Week and toured with The National and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah in the fall of 2005.

Pitchfork media wrote of the album "When the punctuated rhythm of programmed percussion gives way to cascading cymbal crashes and spacious break beats, it's nothing short of cathartic.

The enhanced version was to include a cover of Brian Eno's "Sombre Reptiles" and a video for "Mountain Cats".

For Olivier Theyskien's Spring 2008 show under the Nina Ricci label, DJ Michel Gaubert used several Talkdemonic songs for the soundtrack.

In October 2011 it was announced that Talkdemonic will be opening for Modest Mouse for two of their shows in Austin and Dallas Texas in early November.
