Carver City

Dave Jaffer

CKY sometimes gets smack-talked because their drummer is Bam Margera's brother. And, honestly, their back catalogue ain't that special. That said, Carver City is going to change perceptions of the West Chester, PA band. Why? It's heavy, but not strictly metal, and definitely not skater/stoner metal. Margera's drumming isn't metal drumming. The Moog-y moments and weirdo bits "Plagued by Images" bend it away from convention. Its songs, like "Imaginary Threats", have an arena-rock, uncomplicated, accessible feel that bend it back t'other way. Truth told, I'm not sure I was ready for Carver City to be this interesting.
