Skarekrau Radio is the Tempora IL Kuu Sect. This ever-expanding Sect use “irratainment” to
teach the warnings and revelations of the almighty God Kuu. Those not briefed
on the vast Kuu religion may never understand Skare Krau Radio during their “mass
warning sessions” or “Warning Orbs” at local art spaces and
bars. Kuu basicly warns the human race from the mass “funneling” of
the populace minds into a state of insectoidness. This is a Terry Plumming/Apop
Records CD release show. Remember Kuu also states, “one who leaves a
bad impression is better than leaving none at all”
