Wiskerbisket

10/03/03
The band on the cover of our September issue, Wiskerbisket,brought their freewheeling show to Peter C's last month. I like this band's unpredictability and spontaneity; you just never know what they are going to do or perform next!
During the course of one set, singer/guitarist Doug Snook, rhythm guitarist John Everly, bassist Troy Neff and drummer Harry Bleyer ran the gamut from Stone Temple Pilots' "Crackerman" to a hip-hop improv jam (with guest vocals by
former Broken Neck keyboardist Peen), to songs by Bob Seger, Weezer and Wild Cherry, to a blazing metallic version of "Rocky Top," to their original rocker "Skank." Doug and John both ran amok throughout Peter C's, performing atop chairs and keeping the show continually exciting. If you enjoy fun,feverish energy and a sense of adventure, catch Wiskerbisket's return to Peter C's Nov.13.

Each song has a style of its own and, depending on which one you're listening to, you'll hear some stuff you're familiar with which I assume are tunes they do in their live set.
Wiskerbisket turned the classic "Stand By Me" into a punk tune, which was really cool. The other tune that I feel I should mention is "6 Finger Flip," which is just an all out rock song. Yeah...This is a good tune to end the disc with because it leaves you wanting more.

Wiskerbisket?when you hear good stuff it just sticks out like a piece of fresh shrapnel.These guys were maintaining vocals for an active group like
Wiskerbisket.Wiskerbisket? A scary concoction (www.wiskerbisket.com). Scary in the sense that one could imagine these guys being offered an all-expenses paid concert at the DDT convention at Love Canal with transportation provided by All-Terrorist Airlines and their reaction would be, "Gig? Yes, Party!" Wiskerbisket
appears to be alternative-reality based. If it doesn't have to do with musical madness and dancing then they don't know nothing about it.You'll know all their stuff and be consistently impressed or surprised by how they twist things up. If its non-dance (Devo's "Whip It"), it will be when the 'Bisket is done with it. If it's a sentimental little ditty (Van Morrison's "Brown Eyed Girl"), it's party when Wiskerized.Fortunately (for the audience), lead guitarist/vocalist Doug Snook
appears to be ignoring his meds, and guitarist John Everly, bassist Troy Neff and drummer Big-H all appear to be taking their therapy a little lightly. It's a tribute to Snook's performance skill that no one took a guitar chop to the head or anything really vital when he got fully animated. If a little unsupervised chaos works for you,Bisket has a seat (for as long as you can hold on to it) in the house for you.
