"Halflife" Issue 2	Ampersand Washington, D.C. This is the eighties. Need we say more?
Co-Editor of Sibilance "Introit" "Jazzersize" "Eastern" "'Till You" Issue 1 "Swollen Up Silly" "Child's Play" "Girdle" Issue 2	Boffo Santana-Jones Bangor, ME Spawned from the twisted and eerie backwoods of Maine's forested entrails, the cynical industrialist Boffo Santana-Jones' musical education and inspiration was expunged from the racket of passing locomotives... his only contact with the outside world. His musical stylings can also be heard on Trip's Compilation "This Way Out", on his 12" EP "Give Me More", and in a forthcoming solo album. Aside from creating music, Boffo is also known as a producer extraordinaire. [Return To Top of Page]
"Discharge" Issue 1	Bullshit Jesus ?unknown? Little is known about Bullshit. His/her/its submission came to us in a plain brown wrapper with only a roughly-drawn sketch and a suicide note enclosed. Please, Bullshit, contact our offices immediately. The world can't lose your musical inspiration. [Return To Top of Page]
"Dementia" Issue 1	Christian Johnson New York, NY Throttling the foibles and phantoms of everyday life, first analyzing, then dissecting, then slashing... a rock/pop fist clenching a razor-sharp lyrical edge. "Dementia" takes us on a little Trip through the soft underbelly of human disintegration which increasingly surrounds us. Listen for tracks from his 1996 Trip Records debut album "King Baby" on MTV's "Dennis Rodman's World Tour" Home Video as well as on Trip's Compilation "This Way Out". [Return To Top of Page]
Graphics & Packaging for Issue 1 & Issue 2 "Ale Heigh" "Declarium" Issue 1 "Child's Play" "Yer Luv" "Tae Deum Vitae" Issue 2	Danny Evarts Wolf Pond, ME Danny Evarts is to music what `[noun]` is to `[dead celebrity]` He also likes to "make purdy pick-chers" as a freelance graphic designer and as "Stylin' Boy" for Trip Records. [Note: Danny is the designer of the Sibilance web pages. So if you don't like them, bitch at him] [Return To Top of Page]
"Solitude" Issue 1 "You Messed It Up" Issue 2	davidmahr San Francisco, CA Angst has been attempted by so many, yet most have fallen violently beneath the ripping blades of the pop-culture threshing machine. Somehow davidmahr rejects the idea that sweet soulful tunes and honest words cannot be accomplished, striding gallantly ahead in the battle to keep hopeful melodies, angst- ridden lyrics and danceable, bouncy music alive. Solo Projects include the albums "Solitude" and his forthcoming "No Drama!" [Return To Top of Page]
"Girdle" Issue 2	Dean Johnson Brooklyn, NY [Return To Top of Page]
"Tits" (Parts 1-3) Issue 2	Denise New York, NY There are two important things in this world: a good story and... tits! The artist/painter known as Denise has long been known by friends and children everywhere to be one of those few and far between souls known as a grand story teller. Her musings have been known to shed light on otherwise unthought of and ignored ministrations. [Return To Top of Page]
"Gym Queen" Issue 1	Eric Mars San Francisco, CA Serving up spurious musings from a Martian perspective, Eric Mars brings us enlightened insight into the ins and outs of body-sculpting and one of its insidious side-effects: homo love. Listen and learn, fellow fags. [Return To Top of Page]
"Local Psychic" "The Thief" "Abrupt Awakening" Issue 2	F I B New York, NY A highlight of gallery openings & performance spaces, melding spoken word with impromptu accompaniment to enlighten and provoke. Look for more of their work on the Atavistic Records "State of the Union" compilation. [Return To Top of Page]
"125th & Amsterdam" Issue 2	Green & Checkers Manhattan, NY Pardon me, but your house is on fire. A twisted, let's-not-take-this-too-seriously melding of 30 years of Rock influences, from pure honest rhythms to R&B to alternative, which sum up to paint a terrifying and believable picture. Self-titled debut album released August 1997!! [Return To Top of Page]
"Ha Ha" "Ain't That a Bitch" (Parts 1 & 2) Issue 2	Holophonic New York, NY The lesson they teach is a valuable one: Be careful what you say to an answering machine. You never know who might be listening in. [Return To Top of Page]
"Saran rap" Issue 2	Laura Janisse New York, NY There are brilliant dyke composers in the world, and she's it. [Return To Top of Page]
"Introit" "Jazzersize" "Ale Heigh" "Declarium" "Hymn #465" Issue 1 "Child's Play" "Tae Deum Vitae" Issue 2	Marcie Duz... Donna! Klamath Falls, OR & Klett, Norway Adorably sweet despite their spinning heads and razor-sharp pigtails, Marcie Duz... Donna! has charmed all those who have fallen in their path. Donna likes to play in the sandbox with her G.I. Joe's. Marcie likes to play with Donna. If they don't scare you then you must already be dead. [Return To Top of Page]
"Hymn #465" "Ale Heigh" Issue 1	Mark and his Lecher Boy Chorale Heavenly Bliss Since his spiritually sexual awakening during a vision involving jesus and a sharpened cross as a small child, Mark has dedicated his life to "spreading God's 'true' love throughout the world." For Hymn #465, he joined his voice with the sweetly haunting tones of his renowned Lecher Boy Chorale, who also appear with him on his Spiritual Compilation "Hymns to a Holy Lover". [Return To Top of Page]
"Yer Luv (Opus 1 #1)" Issue 2	Pointless Sisters Detroit, MI Their theory? If it can't be written, recorded, mixed and produced in under an hour, it just ain't worth makin'. [Return To Top of Page]
"Charlie Off the Wall" Issue 1	Pre Cum New York, NY Taking inspiration from such diverse callings as Ska Punk, Italian lyric opera, and deco-era lounge music, Pre Cum brings us this wonderfully deranged and sarcastic quickie. I'm sure these boys speak for us all when they ask the question, "Won't you take that picture of Charlie off the wall?" [Return To Top of Page]
"It's a tough market" "typical male" Issue 1	R Weis New York, NY Working in poetry and manipulated sound since 1984, R. Weis' work has been heard at many New York City venues. Music from his cd "Mystery of the Egg" has been played on experimental radio programs around the U.S., and the complete sound score "Requiem for a Paperweight" has been presented in museum and gallery installations throughout the country with photographs by Arthur Tress. [Return To Top of Page]
"Asexual" Issue 1	Racket Club Minneapolis, MN This boisterous boy-band bailing banged-up belligerence pops up occasionally on compilations, such as "Control-Alt-Delete" and "CatScan", and continues to act as resident bilge-pump to his home town of Minneapolis. His contribution to Sibilance is yet another example of his "I think it would be kinda funny" work born out of driven computer programming and a virgo-like fixation on big nasty noises. [Return To Top of Page]
"Tuba Mirum" Issue 1	Strapfkernerator Trondheim, Norway The compositional team of Aksel Hagen Tjora & Øivind Klungseth Zahlsen brings us a melding of Markovian Analysis and Social Constructivism, with an aim to amalgamate art and science. Their hauntingly shimmering "Strapfkernerators Requiem" is currently in production from Trip Records. The broader work incorporates symphonic ensemble, singers, electric band and electronic effects in a tribute to the victims of human rights abuses around the world. [Return To Top of Page]
"cul-de-sac" "Anal Fixation" Issue 1 "Insomnia" "Sibilance" Issue 2	Subconscious Can Can Cult Salt Lake City, UT & Sapporo, Japan `The subconscious mind is amusing. Let it run amok. Let it make lots of mistakes. That is reality.` For many years, this enigmatic and oft-misunderstood group has lain silently behind obscure scrims of shadow and insanity. With musical detours ranging from art installations and video projects to uniquely entrapping sounds created on the most "primitive" of instruments, they manipulate and expand the realms of experimental music. With their inclusion in Sibilance they have, for the first time, allowed their works to be heard on a more public scale. The Cult's debut album "FUN" is in production now from Trip Records.

Graphics & Packaging for Issue 1 & Issue 2 "Ale Heigh" "Declarium" Issue 1 "Child's Play" "Halflife" "Yer Luv" "Tae Deum Vitae" Issue 2	Tommy Davis Wolf Pond, ME Tommy Davis doesn't believe that his musical genius even exists. But those who hear his haunting melodies are inspired and left physically drained and mentally erect from the experience. [Return To Top of Page]
Images for Issue 1 "cul-de-sac" "Anal Fixation" Issue 1 "Insomnia" "Sibilance" Issue 2	Tuber The Ground That's "Too-burr" like a potato, okay?!? If you call him "Mr. Potato Head" he gets real sad. [Return To Top of Page]
"Michael's A Faggot" Issue 1	Wayne Numan Richmond, VA Wayne Numan brings to Sibilance the delightful "Michael's A Faggot" -- which is about no one in particular, but nonetheless reminds us that life can be just as amusing no matter which direction the stripes on your back are aimed. [Return To Top of Page]
"Just A Bear" Issue 2	Woof Dobb's Ferry, NY This self-described "2 tons of fun" creates for us the definitive anthem for those fuzzy, happy bears. [Return To Top of Page]
