GRIETFEST 2013 Get to Know the Artist on The Bill

I AM NOIZE!!

Chris Pheiffer was alone when this started, so no one else can be blamed for what has happened...

On a dark and filthy night, he found something... Something new...

Something the world had to hear...

White Noize met Filth and became a sound that cannot be described...

Too Dirty to be Electro... Too Filthy to be Techno... Too Trashy to be Maximal... Too Dark to be Fidget...

Too Loud to be explained...

He is not a wedding DJ... He is not a Jukebox... He is HAVOC...

He is FILTH...

He is NOIZE!!!!
