About Us

The Satanic Puppeteer Orchestra is Professor B. Miller (Mad scientist extrordinare, responsible for the music) and SPO-20 (The Robot who sings). We are from San Diego, recently released our debut four CD box set masterpiece (July 2007), and just started performing live again after years of writing and recording in solitude. We have been together since 1996.

We are lousy at describing what we do, so we decided to just let someone else do it. Here's a quote from The Plugg:

"In a truly overzealous gesture of elevating the somewhat strange to the wholly ridiculous, Professor B. Miller has completed a 4 disc, mega-release of his minimalist, robot-lead compositions under the name Satanic Puppeteer Orchestra. Combining Adult Swim style set-ups (with songs like Cheap Trapeze Lessons, I Stole Your Daddies Time Machine and Haunted Rental Car), concept album consistency (um, the entire thing is sung by a robot) and enough musical range to keep things actually interesting, the new release conjures roughly 20 + years of absurdity and satire the likes of which Spinal Tap, Blues Brothers, They Might Be Giants and Devo are just a small reference."
