Sin, Supercorp, tunnel

Sin. is a supersonic psychedelic garage rock project based out of the depths of the underground music scene in Chicago, Illinois. The band is fronted by Ethan Oliver on vocals and guitar, Brian Chindblom on lead guitar, Joe McTague on bass and Caleb Nelson on drums. This 4 piece powerhouse of a group uses glamourous sparkly chords, fuzzy and spacey guitar tones, simple yet effective rock beats, exhilarating bass lines, and chilling vocals to create a beautiful amalgamation of “Do It Yourself”, psychedelic rock fusion.At its core, Sin. Is a rock and roll group through and through. However, conceptually, Sin. goes much deeper. Front man Ethan Oliver grew up in the Evangelical Christian church, surrounded by missionaries, pastors, and devout followers of Christ. With this upbringing came a lot of shame surrounding things like human desire and emotions, condemned and called Sin, without him fully understanding why. Ethan named the project Sin. as a sort of positive reclamation of the term. Sin. as a project aims to embrace the human experience and reject spiritual transcendence, giving in to desire, lust, gluttony, wrath, etc… Sin. wants you to take pride in your animalistic instincts, and some of the darker parts of your psyche.

Starting with her phone and the garageband app, she slowly developed her sore-throat sound that only the D.I.Y approach can elevate. The Twocell sound has been likened to that of simplistic folk rock following artists like Brittle Brian, Alex G, and Angel Olsen.
