Mangling together meat and music into a form of entertainment, Bratwurst is designed to turn the stomach as much as it assaults the ears. For over 25 years, the annual brave spectacle has sacrificed packaged liver, raw beef, or other entrails at the altar of industrial noise. The production is fueled by metal grinders, tire chains, squealing electric guitars, and a drummer who takes inspiration from a punch press. The band takes single-handed credit for the downfall of the downtown business district. Frontman Tyler Scouton is backed in the band by Jason Ratajek, Leon Rohrbaugh, Brennan Atchison, and Jeremy Craig.
