Artist description
What began as a musical experiment in the basement of a tattoo parlor in eastern PA during the summer of 98', has since developed into an intricate collaboration of sounds and ideas. The Covert Agency, which consists of Clint Weiler (drums and vocals), Tim Martinkovitch (guitar and vocals) and Mike Varga (bass and vocals) released their debut LP entitled "010" in September of 2000, their S/T Orange EP the following year, and their S/T Brown EP in March of 2002. The Agency is influenced by many bands but their sound is unique. From indiscriminate tempo changes, to wailing guitar harmonic compositions and bass fluctuations, The Agency has put together a formula with ever-changing variables. Lyrics that reflect both the simple and complex elements of life and imagination are bounced between and/or synchronized by Weiler and Martinkovitch. Currently, The Covert Agency is putting together a fourth release for Universal Warning Records but they were also featured on a UWR compilation release (Halloween 2001) entitled "The Warning Comp". Joining them: the Jazz June, Sadaharu, No on 15, and several others. As long as these three sons-a-bitches continue to collaborate unconsciously, new music will manifest. |

Press Reviews
"The band checks too many styles (indie, power pop, good ol' punk and even a dash of math rock) for a label to stick... a band with chops and potential" - Randy Harward, SLUG (Salt Lake)
"...melodic and straight forward" - Hein Terweduwe, Punk Updates (Belgium)
