Chemlab
Mr. Louche's uncanny use of the F word is sure to make many ears perk up. So it comes as no surprise that the notorious slogan on Chemlab's T-shirts ("Fuck Art, Let's Kill") is etched in the memory of most. The F word is quite a powerful adjective, but most tend to overuse it in very predictable, boring ways. Jared Louche has an unusual manner of cleverly inserting it strategically into his sentences, giving it the power to shock, amuse, and even seduce.
Jared Louche's descriptive style of speaking can be heard on his spoken word segments at hydrogenbar.com. He casually but forcefully sweeps you into his train of thought as he narrates every vivid detail of his lurid experiences — you feel like you're almost there.
Perhaps Jared should always have a portable tape recorder with him. Recording spontaneous, random thoughts during a worthwhile moment can bring the listener much pleasure.
