Genre Is Death destroy limitation….Their minimalist sound, presentation and performance rather than acting as a typecasting influence, provides an expansive backdrop from which their connection with each other can be fully explored. Their presence as a two-piece band on stage evokes comparisons to the English-American rock duo The Kills, who cultivated a powerful stage presence through performances that were as intimate as they were raucous. The seamless execution of Tayler Lee’s voice/bass and Ty Varesi’s voice/guitar is reminiscent of early Sleater-Kinney songs that featured Corin Tucker and Carrie Brownstein’s interwoven vocal delivery that felt more like a conversation between the conscious and subconscious mind than one between two people. Connection isn’t a one dimensional concept to Varesi and Lee. Intricate guitar/bass lines and vocal call/response give way on many occasions to menacing wall of sound moments that evoke early Sonic Youth. More rhythmically open passages bring about a playfulness reminiscent of Teenage Jesus and the Jerks performances. Genre Is Death make connection captivating. They induce audiences to mosh, make-out or watch in rapt attention as they perform their art without clenching a muscle. They are New York City. They are Atlanta. They are post-punk. They are no-wave. They are garage rock. They are avant-garde. They are rock n’ roll without even trying!

titsdickass’ sound is a chaotic amalgamation of the dissonant punk and no wave of Sonic Youth, the foreboding dark driving bass lines of Joy Division and the pain riddled, searing vocals one would expect to hear from Kurt Cobain at a Nirvana basement show in Hell. titsdickass’ music takes the listener on a futuristic journey to discover a new version of whatever that punk energy was that infected New York and later London in the late 70s. The band delivers their sonic assault with the urgency of musicians that live in a world rife with sexism, misogyny and transphobia.
