Artist History "Jeberrekenelle were cool--you were a cool metal band." That's all said in retrospect. Were we a metal band? I sometimes wonder that myself. We certainly started out that way--to confuse the folk we played for. But within the year, we had most people shaking their heads at our arty ways. The band was formed by Sam and Ananda in the summer of 1993. During the summer we got Brian to agree to temporarily be our drummer, and he decided to stick around. By December that year, we had recorded and decided to put out a split LP with another Santa Barbara band, Rugburn (iijima). A while later we put out a cassette single, and played on the local university radio station. The chaos ensued through June 16th, 1994, when we played our last show. All members have since been involved in many other fine musical projects.

Press Reviews Oct 21, 1993. The Santa Barbara Independent The third time is a charm, and the third band, Jeberrekenelle, was, well... charming. I hate to call the bass and singing guy Ananda Mahto a sensitive punk, because that sounds like an insult, but with him it really is true in a good way. The band's songs are quirkier and more abstract than the average youth noise punk, and the music has a sense of humor. Drummer Brian Tamborello is absolutely the greatest... what you would call a "pounder." Guitarist Sam Bennett (the same Sam Bennett who organizes shows and does all sorts of cool stuff for everybody) has a good nose. ---Andrew Broomhead
