Tyevk, Howler, Forest Of Men, and Calamity And The Owl at Triple Rock Social Club
Detroit's Tyevk (formerly Tyvek, a DuPont trademark) masks something more intriguing than spare-parts garage-rock riffs and tinny production with its abundance of spare-parts garage-rock riffs and tinny production. Sure, the drummer seems to beat on just one tom and one hi-hat the whole time, and the band may as well be using cups on strings instead of amps, but 2009's self-titled album actually reveals some kind of dynamic built within all this wreckage on songs like "Hey Una" and "Frustration Rock." How this will balance out against all the material that still feels antagonistic and willfully half-formed is a matter of time and patience. Tyevk followed the album up in 2010 with a tape release called Skyin', and is at work on another full-length for In The Red.
