The Sound and the Fury was a band from my concert going days at Pitt State. They were out of Kansas City but swung down to Pittsburg often enough that I got to see them frequently (for a while there when Pittsburg had a pretty decent music scene).

Pushing the Demons was always my favorite song of theirs, musically (although sometimes at the end of a set they'd play Hey Jude and I always got way into that). Bass player Jay Kassen told me that he got the idea for the bass riff from a carousel melody and took it from there. It's also one of the first (and only) bits of bass music I ever learned to play.



The Sound and the Fury, TSATF as we liked to abbreviate it, broke up when their van broke down -- the guys just didn't have the resources to put into a new concert vehicle, in spite of the best efforts of their fans in southeast Kansas.

This is still one of my favorite songs
