TV BUDDHAS are a threeway powerhouse from Tel Aviv, Israel, comprising of brothers Uri and Mickey Triest and Juval Haring.

Their raw, intense, completely involving live show in addition to their somewhat geeky and shy demeanor, brings together the simplicity of The Ramones, the explosivness of The MC5 and the anti-rock'n'roll subject matter of The Modern Lovers.

While still living in their parent's house and working at a shitty record store, The BUDDHAS realised there was nothing for them in their own country.

If they were to make art the way they saw fit, they would have to leave. They started touring around winter 2007 and have been on the road ever since, completing more than 300 shows to date, releasing 4 CDRS, 2 cassettes and an LP compilation entitled "The Golden Period" (TROST Records).

Their brand of frustration music has developed from fast and loud noise to carefuly structured peices of proto punk and psychedelic garage.

Their songs deal with being an outsider even in the underground scene, preferring to stay at home rather than going out, being nobody special, the pressure shy people feel around fashionable hip types, having no willpower to participate in sub cultures or try and be original, and the fear of loud obnoxious fun-girls and polaroid pictures
