From Tokyo Japan, Melt-Banana is like a roller coaster in an amusement park. However it can be challenging to categorize their music, some say they are a noise band others describe them as hardcore, or no wave. Basically Melt-Banana is a rock band with a spicy kick of punk. They are known for playing extremely fast and noisy music mixed with experimental electronica. Dan Lett of Pitchfork writes about Melt-Banana; “...their best releases stand as a testament to the power that a well-produced and inventive punk band can command with focus, technical prowess, and sick levels of ambition.”
The United Sons of Toil are a collective deeply rooted in the grinding noise and math rock that bubbled up from the Midwest during the mid '90s. This is not to suggest that the Sons are a retro band in any sense, simply that the hoarse vocals, guitar damage, starts and stops, and sometimes-convoluted arrangements and time signatures hark back to a time when labels like Touch and Go, AmRep, and Dischord lorded over the indie-rock landscape.
Dick The Bruiser is a two-piece, bass & drums, post punk combo with affected theremin thrown in for - affect. Fuzzy, angular, heavy, urgent music!
