We enter it - a world of disguise, age, mask, FLAWWWWS, the VERY things The Influencer wanted you to hide with her Nitecreme.
Don't be afraid - pack yourself into this plastic box - find a stranger - tell them your demon.
And that's right, that's The Influenzas tied up in the corner :)
"The guards are down on the eve of.....ultimate disguise."
Will you let us see you as you are ?
Please do.
We are not here to judge.

Commentary:
Here's the video shot, produced & performed by SD creator, Kym Priess, alone in her garage with a red backdrop, two mannequins, a wig, a stuntsuit and a ton of plastic.
Perhaps you witness some conceptual rock influences here akin to Peter Gabriel’s presence in Genesis or the sonic antics of Causey Way or Devo or the brash bravado of Lady Gaga or BONES UK.
Maybe some reference to early Madonna or Shannon's "Let the Music Play."
Listen LOUD.
lyrics
Plastic Faces
Why are you hiding
Plastic Faces
You’ve come undone
Plastic Faces
Disguise is abiding
Plastic Faces
You’re not much fun
Mask those lines now
Pretend the Prime
Smooth ‘em out
She says
Do or Die
Plastic Faces
Times are colliding
Plastic Faces
Thee unapproved
Plastic Faces
Times are confiding
Plastic Faces
Gravitational truth
Mask those lines now
Pretend the Prime
Smooth ‘em out
She says
Do or Die
Pains and aches and black rings
Masks disguise the sagging things
Pains and all the dark things
Whoa Oh Oh •
Check the weight / A bag of age
Flaws are on the MainStage
Check the weight / Bag of age
Whoa Oh Oh
Plastic Faces
Why are you tired
Plastic Faces
It’s just begun
Pains and all the dark things
Whoa Oh Oh
Plastic Faces
Gotta unwire
Pains and aches and black rings
Masks disguise the sagging things
Plastic Faces
Are you too much fun ?
The guards are down on the eve of
The eve of ultimate disguise
Those voices counter the demons
As we all settle and revel
Where’s all the fun ?
Plastic
Are you plastic
Yes I’m plastic
Where’s all the fun ?

STUNTDRIVER is an LA-based performance-driven genre-bending rock spectacle that is straddling music and art crowds with its
“Diva” Knievel-style white racecar suits, gold helmets, painted faces, Janet Jackson-esque choreography, camp aesthetics and bass-driven, dark-synth laced heavy electro-art rock that makes everyone feel like they’re on the same punk rock adventure together. ...more
