They were too weird for punk, too raw for art rock, too theatrical for pop, too melodic for noise. Balloons for the Dog emerged from the humid chaos of suburban Maryland in the late 1970s-part band, part brotherhood, part Dada experiment in the shell of a rock group.

No one quite knew what to do with them. Least of all themselves.

The songs were brilliant, biting, often absurd-sometimes operatic, sometimes just plain unhinged. Fronted by two shapeshifting vocalists-Georgy Jett, who had literally just walked across Africa, and his foil Mr. Leo, Bill's brother and spiritual instigator-they conjured a world filled with talking dogs, gray-car girls, metaphysical porters, insects at war, and "the dick." It was half satire, half sacred incantation, and all of it was real.
