Biography
With broad strokes of No Wave and classic hardcore
sensibilities, the Magik Markers have often been saddled with
comparsions to Teenage Jesus and especially Red Transistor, though in
their five year wake of trashed drumkits and broken guitars they've
done equal amounts of introspective sound explorations as well. Live,
Pete Nolan (drums), Leah Quimby (guitar) and Elisa Ambrogio (guitar,
vocal) totally spraypaint the walls; if you are missing the
adrenaline-to-the-heart shock of live Harry Pussy, Minor Threat and
primo Black Flag (Elisa is way more Keith Morris than Lydia Lunch), or
worship the meltdown guitar rumbling and off-balance wooziness of the
Dead C circa "Harsh 70's Reality" this may very well be your new fave
action trio.-Brian Turner
