Looking Beyond the Obvious is the first official release under the moniker, The Dry Heeves. As far as our fan base is concerned, this is where it all began. But in reality, The Dry Heeves had already recorded hours of music under previous names such as The_, Karl Orff, KCUF-FM, and Dick 'n' the Heads. However, Looking Beyond the Obvious is seminal in solidifying the eccentricities and absurdities of the group's approach to music. And with a European hit to boot, '4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse', who could ask for anything more.
