Anyone familiar with a show called Toxic Audio?

My understanding is it's some kind of off-Broadway show (maybe something ala Stomp?) that's going to do some dates here in Mexico City...I have a feeling it will either suck terribly or be incredible, no in betweens. Apparently these people do amazing things with their voices and they have rave reviews from the NY Times and the like, but I'm having some doubts about buying tickets. I mean, is it just five guys doing weird noises with their mouths for 90 minutes?

Anyway, it's tentatively planned as part of a big day-long date, but I wouldn't want to take this girl to some rubbish show.

Yay or nay? Any details? Thanks!

Toxic Audio is a five person (3 men, 2 women) a capella singing group and they are phenomenal. Generally, they do the instrument sounds (principally drums, guitars, bass) as well as the vocals for songs you would know. They also sometimes improvise songs out of audience suggestions, or do rap numbers containing words chosen randomly from books, and a few song parodies. The show is mostly humorous and the live performance eclipses the recordings, which are still awfully good.

You can hear sound clips at:

Everything you hear is produced by the human voice.
