Giraffes? Giraffes! is an eclectic and inventive math rock duo known for their complex instrumentals and energizing performances. The band was formed in 2001 by guitarist Kenneth Topham and drummer Joseph Andreoli, who together create a dynamic sound characterized by intricate guitar work, frenetic drumming, and a blend of various musical influences, including experimental rock, jazz, and electronic music. The unconventional use of punctuation in their name reflects the idiosyncratic and playful spirit that permeates their approach to music.

Over the years, Giraffes? Giraffes! have crafted a distinct style that has won them a dedicated following in the math rock and instrumental rock scenes. Their discography, which includes titles such as "Pink Magick," "Memory Lame," and the ever-energetic "More Skin With Milk-Mouth," showcases their ability to juxtapose technical precision with moments of improvisational abandon. They've earned critical acclaim for their intricate compositions and engaging live shows, where the duo often portrays a sense of narrative and theatricality. The 2015 remaster of "More Skin With Milk-Mouth" and their latest releases further demonstrate their commitment to evolving their sound while maintaining the core of innovation and complexity that has become their trademark.
