Fake Limbs

This is a true story: “so, I need to get a band going,” announced Stephen Sowley on the Electrical forum in February of 2011. No shit, Sowl Man. After seeing him perform with the Hype at many BBQs, we weren’t gonna let him not. Lucky for us the intrepid three who stood up were Mat Biscan formerly of Builder-Destroyer, Nick Smalkowski, and Bryan Gleason, an ex-balloonist. Fake Limbs debuted on the first night of the third annual PRFBBQ Summer festival. Sowley swung around the stage testifying to a blown-away crowd, and Bryan thrashed around playing stabby Sabbath-Flag guitar while Nick and Mat did the friction and intensity. That night, they broke many hearts and eardrums. Fake Limbs are fevered, salty punk for the math-rock elite. — Kate
