"Captain Ahab is an electropop duo based in Los Angeles, California. They refer to their sound, a DIY take on dance music, as ravesploitation. The band is made up of Jonathan Snipes and Jim Merson. A typical Captain Ahab live performance consists of playback of recorded beats from a computer and vigorous singing by both members of the band. While performing, members of Captain Ahab are usually partially undressed, covered in sweat, and constantly forcing themselves into physical contact with members of the audience. While the lyrics to some Captain Ahab songs are satirically misogynist, their live performance is thoroughly homoerotic. In June 2006, Captain Ahab won the Snakes on a Plane music contest, with their song 'Snakes on the Brain'."
