About the Artist
"A sonic onslaught." "Industrial with a mile-wide 'I'."These tech-core hellions unleash a merciless inferno of industrial chaos at their live shows and on their debut Big Heavy World CD, ".daca." Produced by Glenn Robinson (GWAR), chainsaws.and.children are leading the charge of a post-millennial coldwave revival. These extreme "nanowickermen" combine programming with blood-lusting axe-work to create a threatening, inimitable contemporary sound.
Chainsaws.and.children's music has been licensed to MTV and used behind extreme sports footage on Fox Sports, broadcast in Europe, Canada, and the US. Didn't hear it? Listen harder next time.
In July 2001 chainsaws.and.children ignite the NO2 for their cross-country Core Breach Tour, performing at the world-famous DefCon hacker convention in Las Vegas, one of the planet's largest gatherings of the technology underground. Core Breach takes them from Boston to Los Angeles and back, wrapping up the three-week blitzkrieg at HELLBENDER, a brutal East Coast showcase featuring jaw-breaking metal, punk, and hardcore. Not for the weak. Check the tour schedule for a show near you.
The band in the studio: Paul Dickson, vocals, programming, guitars; Derek Pearson, guitars, programming, vocals. When performing live the band also includes: Brad Dickson, bass; Jacob Stearns, keyboards; Paul D. Gusto, guitar; and Ryan K. Hood, drums.
