Pittsburgh's art-punk squad known as the Ben Quick deliver heavy, thick slices of indie pop together with catchy riffs and delicious boy/girl vocals sometimes flavored with out-and-out noise rock in 13 various dancable songs.
Bio / Background
Sometime around the turn of the century, two girls and two guys got together. The intention was to form a band of eco-revolutionaries to smash the capitalist state with their DIY ways, but, instead, they formed a rock band. But such is the way history progresses...
These kids, all students at California University of Pennsylvania, stole a name from a Paul Newman character in the cinematic adaptation of William Faulkner's The Hamlet and started taking their dancey art-punk to the streets quite quickly. Hippie drum circles invaded, booties forced to shake at beer-soaked basement shows, drug-addled burnouts and high school street punks alike confused and distressed by the interspersed angular noise amongst the pop punk whoo-oos: such was the trail of annihilation left by the Ben Quick. The self-destructing neo-luddite party machine kept churning out the rock and/or roll, even when the masses cried out for respite in the face of smashed guitars and ample bloodshed.
