What is The Poo?
It's not an easily answered question, even after you've scoured the depths of their multi-pronged media and art-stuffed website. If you were to check out their documentary DVD The Flea Market Project, you might have a somewhat better idea of what this high-weirdness art-collective is all about. Were you to listen to their excruciatingly hilarious full-length CD God Save Us From... The Poo Syndicate you'd have an even clearer picture. You might also find by that point that you're slightly naseous and still rather confused. And that's exactly where The Poo wants you.
Clips of the above-mentioned projects are available for viewing on the site, but the real draw is the online flea-market section of their Merch page. You can snag authentic white trash goodies at barter-table prices. While you're at it, scope out the t-shirts, stickers, prints, custom leather wristbands, air-brushed liscence plates and their transcendently sublime coloring book.
It's so much more than the merch, though. Stop by Brooklyn's City Reliquary next week to see The Poo Syndicate's faboo collection of flea-market finds, or view The Flea Market Project in it's entirety at the Reliquary's upcoming Collector's Night film-fest. It's the dark heart of Appalachia laid bare....
