Martin Stewart (Terror – guitar)

SPB: Do you read press written about you?

Stewart: After playing in bands for about 15 years now, I have to say that I don't. I'll read an occasional good review here and there if it's brought to my attention by somebody I know. I definitely don't watch any video interviews that I've done because it makes want to quit talking for rest of my life when I hear what my voice sounds like. And as far as message board / Facebook / twitter / Lambgoat comments, which doesn't really count as “press” anyway...you might as well be speaking to a brick wall at this point in my life.

Music • May 13, 2025

Each year in late May, the 4-day party and noise-rock festival Caterwaul takes over multiple venues in Minneapolis. It’s a stacked lineup this year, to put it mildly, with each night’s headliners FACS, Young Widows, Naw, Pissed Jeans, and Uniform -- and that’s leaving a ton of other great bands … Read more

Total Retaliation
Pure Noise (2018)

I first saw Terror live in a garage with about 30 other people on New Year's Eve in 2002. I remember the day because I was blown away by the band's passion, intensity and musicianship, flowing seamlessly from fast verses to chorus breakdowns, peppered with perfectly-timed two-steps and singalongs. I still distinctly remember drummer Nick Jett's blistering snare fills cutting … Read more
