Check out Ninja Academy's Myspace page and website to hear drum n' bass done punk n' dub-styleee, as played by 2 Southern California shadow warriors, backed by a poisonous clan of martial artists. They stalk our local haunts, appearing from nowhere, doing jumpkicks to our eardrums, and throwing chained shuriken through our hearts and yelling, "Come here!" as they will this Friday night at The Echo.
