To Live and Shave in L.A.

To Live and Shave in L.A. (TLASILA) is an experimental noise rock collective founded in 1993 by avant-garde composer/producer Tom Smith and Miami Beach musician/producer Frank "Rat Bastard" Falestra. They were soon joined by oscillator player Ben Wolcott. This lineup created the majority of the early releases in TLASILA's extensive discography.
