SQUALL & SCRAWL
THE LEAGUE OF EXISTENCE
The League Of Existence is a group of artists and philosophers who, in the face of mundane boredom and inevitable doom, amuse themselves as best they can through humor and artistic endeavors. From 1976 to 1990, the LOE was known as The Federation.
In the pre-digital age, the Federation/LOE produced their work on audiotape and film, canvas and paper page. At the turn of the 21st Century, they began to take advantage of the new technology and produced several "demo" CDs, which often included archival highlights from the analog years.
In 2012 they began recording their first-ever studio album, THE WEEN OF HALLO. It was formally released in 2013. Their full current Discography of studio albums is below. See the Squawl & Scrawl STORE page for purchasing options!
