| − | Known for their explosive stage shows, and incendiary lyrics, [[Seattle]]'s '''¡Tchkung!''' blended [[guerrilla theater]], "tribal" drumming, and [[Punk rock|punk]] ethics. Their live performances included multiple drummers, violin, [[didgeridoo]], and electric bass, all played to fire breathers and eaters, people piercing their own bodies and other theatrical scenes. Often compared to [[Crash Worship]], or [[Crass]], the band has been described as "industrial", though "post-industrial" might be more accurate. The band actually became well known for the conclusions of their shows, which ranged from police raids (such as in [[Eugene, OR]]) and [[riots]] (particularly Seattle's [[Bumbershoot]] Festival in 1994[http://www.seattleweekly.com/music/0335/music-oral.html]), to [[Molotov Cocktail]] demonstrations and parades leading into the streets where audience members would be encouraged to participate with 55-gallon drums, and buckets.

As well Grey Filastine currently performs under the moniker [[Filastine]].
