Tetrode Kink by Fiona Killackey

Atonal, noisy rock that's difficult to categorize, Melbourne band, Tetrode Kink, was formed in late 2005 by five unlikely lads who felt compelled to fuse their talent and tastes to create noise. The Australian band is fast gaining a cult following amongst lovers of rock, punk and indie noise alike. From the darkest dungeon back rooms in pubs through to center stage at Melbourne's hidden-alley bars, the band are making an undeniable impact on a city within which underground music is rampant. An original and unique approach married with experimental technique and skill, Tetrode Kink create the type of music that could easily be aligned with Sonic Youth, Swans and the No Wave movement. Taking to a cabin in the hills this month, the quintet of video editors, graphic designers and electronic engineers, will record the finishing touches to their debut album set for release 2008.

Papercuts: You Can Have What You Want
The third album for Papercuts, You Can Have What You Want, highlights a strongly maturing Jason Robert Quever, who's still a nostalgic songwriter but is bringing a new level of mastery to his trademark sound in good form. Looking back to the first impression of the SF band in 2004, the lo-fi aesthetic of Mockingbird was a hazy and modern take on the old....
Pow Wow!
The bond between brothers can be a tumultuous one, but the musical fruits are plentiful. Just ask the Kinks' Davies brothers, the Greenwoods of Radiohead or the National, who can claim two sets of brothers. This grand tradition extends to Brooklyn-via-Jersey siblings Edward and Jeff Nazareno, who perform under the moniker pow wow! The two have been playing music independently for more than 11...
Interview with Singer-Songwriter Kim Garrison
For Kim Garrison making a living playing music has been a difficult path but also one of the most rewarding. CH caught up with the California-native behind the hauntingly emotive vocals for a chat about moving to NYC, songs, summer and lip-synching. Have you always been in the music industry? Not exactly the "industry" but I've been around music my whole life. I played saxophone...
