    Press Reviews
    . The band was quickly joined by a drummer as well, Kevin Sawka. The rhythm section was spectacular. Burggren was nimble and deadlocked into gorgeous, organic drum and bass patterns with Sawka. (Sawka was the real star here. He was so good that I kept thinking of the first time I watched FCS North's Andy Sells play.) "The Stranger"94TH STREET, DISCOHESIVE (Sit & Spin) It's not often that a musician appears seemingly out of nowhere to make a splash, so naturally I was a bit skeptical when waves of awe suddenly hit me from all directions about a year ago: Drummer Kevin Sawka of 94th Street (also of Siamese) attacked his kit with a frenetic precision so impressive I speculated that he'd once been replaced by a drum machine, and had spent all the years since working out an elaborate revenge. Kevin's resulting ability to run through endless high-bpm breakbeat drills will be in demand for many years to come, but a band's longevity depends upon whether it can kick out memorable tunes. My hunch is that 94th Street's Police-tinged rave-pop stands a greater chance of survival than Discohesive's eclectic, funky-suburb rap-rock, which may take too many collateral hits from the burgeoning "keep your rap outta my metal" movement.
