Biography
    Three fourths of the group spends its time in the highly influential instrumental band Pelican, but has remained consistent with Tusk releases since 2000. While Pelican swoons you, Tusk pummels you with a barrage of experimental grindcore. Avant, progged out, psych', helicopter grind -- Tusk's aural barrage has been categorized with some random appellations. Truth of the matter is, the more out-there the genre description, the more obvious this fact: It's fucking out there. Amidst surgically precise blasts, frenzied vocals and fret board savagery to make devout fans of all matters of harshness raise a horned-hand salute, you'll find a willingness to experiment: sitar, slide guitar, mandolin, swirling keyboard passages.

Discography

    TUSK
    Get Ready (Re-Issue)
    CD (HWC012)

    The long awaited reissue of this classic record featuring 3/4ths of the now influential instrumental act Pelican. The re-issue includes a complete remix and master of the record, plus six new live tracks, new artwork courtesy of Aaron Turner (Hydrahead | Isis), and a new enhanced section with a music and live video. Get ready...again!

    TUSK
    Get Ready
    CD (HWC008)

    Tusk blasts through nine devestating tracks of no wave destruction. Their music is a bombardment of experimental guitars and double bass mania with vocals that are about as subtle as getting run over by a semi truck. Members of Tusk also play in Pelican (Hydra Head Records).

    HEWHOCORRUPTS / TUSK
    S/T
    CDEP (HWC004)

    There is just too much going on here. On one side you have the helicopter grind kings, Tusk, from Chicago tearing their way through two tracks of wind tunnel metal. On the other side, the corporate skundrels from the Chicago loop district unleash their bank accounts on you with four tracks about young boys and such. A definite must for fans of the fast pace, brick in the face, sound. This release marks some of the earliest recorded material for both bands.
