About the artists
Cutting Pink With Knives
Extreme grindcore band. Ish.
Cutting Pink With Knives is:
Edi "fuck my ankle-warmers" Frankel.
Chris "taste my pie" Abitbol.
Alex "dipping between the cock and the arse" Gitzpatrick.
Cadence Weapon
Cadence Weapon, aka Rollie Pemberton, mixes the electronic future-funk of Spank Rock with the flow and intensity of a Def Jux artist, the B-Boy stance of the Old Skool and the emotions of a poet.
A former journalist, Edmonton-based Cadence Weapon has so far released two long-players - Breaking Kayfabe (2006/07) and Afterparty Babies (2008). Both are available in the UK via Big Dada.
The Carps
The Carps are from Scarborough, a pretend hood in Toronto. They are a duo that plays music for human ears. Having two people in a band can be a liberating thing, as it has been seen. Such a shame they are so young — had they come around any earlier they could’ve taken credit for more than a few novel ideas.
With the EP The Young & Passionate Days of Carpedia, the two ragamuffin soul rockers deliver the promise to set themselves far apart from elephants, swirly red and white candy, beards, brothers and sisters, and Phil Collins. The Carps stand alone. They sound like nothing you could imagine, and everything you’d like to.
