Child Abuse (NYC)
Oran Canfield- DRUMS
Luke Calzonetti- KEYBOARDS, VOCALS

"Child Abuse is logical result of an entire generation raised by Nintendo and overbearing, Tipper Gore-admiring moms. "Reading is for people who don't vomit, and Morbid Angel lives in my closet next to my porno!" the band seems to shout with its avalanche of Casio squeals, death-metal percussion, and forgot-to-take-my-Thorazine howls."- Flavorpill

New York's Post-millennial mathemagicians Child Abuse do not listen to their own jazz and metal fusion during sex which is good to know.

Preemptive Priapism Post-millennial mathemagicians Child Abuse simultaneously confuse and stimulate audiences with their unique fusion of progressive-rock, jazz, and metal. The group's sound can be likened to listening to Eric Dolpy's Out There while smoking speed and being sodomized by Captain Beefheart. And while the music is intricate when performed live, Child Abuse make it all seem like child's play. Drummer Oran Canfield's deadpan style anchors the spastic contortions of bassist Tim Dahl and keyboardist/vocalist Luke Calzonetti.

Canfield and Calzonetti migrated from San Francisco to Brooklyn, New York, taking the name Child Abuse with them. Once in Brooklyn the duo added Dahl, who has solidified the group's reign of aural terror.
