New Yorks Bush Tetras had a no wave link, via guitarist Pat Places association with James Chance, but the bands sound was neither frantic nor disjointed enough to be properly categorized with those bands. They played scrappy post-punk, with fellow Americans Pylon and Konk and Brits Delta 5 and Au Pairs as close contemporaries. If theres any one song the Bush Tetras are known for, its 1980s Too Many Creeps — the bands most representative song and also the catchiest, made by the kind of jagged rhythms, slicing guitars, and sniping vocals that were used throughout their short lifespan.
