Bit Brigade, Bambara, Warhead, Mutant Scum

When was the last time you attended a live music performance with a genuine element of risk involved? And no, going to a Gwar show with a white t-shirt on doesn't count. When Bit Brigade takes the stage your mind will frantically oscillate between "Oh! Agh!! Please don't die!!" and "YES! He's doing it!!" Combining the dread and daring of a live video game speed run with the spot-on technique of a live band covering the musical accompaniment to everything you're seeing on-screen in real time, Bit Brigade will have you swinging between the two mediums. From thrashing about to live renditions of your favorite stage themes, fingers yearning to the sky in a rock 'n roll parody of sea anemones seeming to silently plead, "Please, feed us more fretboard pyrotechnics!," to being locked in stock-still rapture as the infallible maestro of the d-pad, Noah McCarthy, takes on the final boss and risks his video game life under the threat of intense peer scorn (or the reward of night-long glory and a credits score). No matter the outcome, Bit Brigade must play on until the deed is done - which it always is - on the first (and last) try. Once Noah's NES buzzes on, there's no turning back." - Metalhead Mike of The Shizz, summer 2011


"Seeing a Bambara set live is sorta like getting trapped in a long, dark corridor with the vague sensation that you are being followed by the thing that terrifies you most ??? so long as what you're scared of is experimental indie bands with a tendency to be mellow very loudly." - Weekly Dig Boston


???Mutant Scum,??? a viscous, radioactive substance hitherto unknown by modern science; discovered by the Society for Estuary Waste Education and Research in the vicinity of Brooklyn???s polluted Newtown Creek early in 2015.

The creatures comprised of and henceforth referred to ???Mutant Scum,??? were subsequently discovered while tracking the substance to it???s source. Little is known about these creatures, the substance, or what event may have twisted them to life. In an effort to generate, aggregate, and analyze information; the Society of Estuary Waste Education and Research has devoted a portion of their efforts to focus on the ongoing activities of their discovery.

This is the sum of the efforts of S.E.W.E.R. and they will continue to project estimates of upcoming activity. Any information or inquiries may be directed to [email protected].
