TONNAGE has shared the stage with such artists as Weedeater, Minsk, Sourvein, Zoroaster, Bloodcow, Chariots, Droids Attack, Imperial Battlesnake and many others. The band performs extensively both locally and regionally, likening their sound to that associated with Amphetamine Reptile Records in the mid-1990s. The influence of Unsane, Helmet, Hammerhead, Guzzard and the Melvins can be heard throughout the music of TONNAGE.
Excerpts from recent press:
“These guys have a somber and moody down-tempo hardcore sound, wrought from the loins of such bands as Helmet and Unsane, with rage-filled rhythms and doom-ridden, hard-edged vocals.†– Madhouse Monthly
“It takes a certain kind of music lover to appreciate the music TONNAGE creates since it is abrasive, noisy and loud. Thankfully for TONNAGE, there are plenty of music fans who prefer those qualities in music.†– Rift Magazine
"This is the sound of a rational, sane, honest man being slowly filled with all consuming rage. Not a wild, teenage form of rage, with a bunch of scattered bursts of violence, but rather that clear anger, the kind that has a very direct target. This is the sound of Tonnage.†- TransformOnline
