Street Eaters
Street Eaters are an American rock band from Berkeley, California. The band's sound, which they self-title using the moniker Truewave, has been described by critics as "powerful post-punk" that is simultaneously "bombastic and sharp, channel[ing] the raw approach to rock 'n' roll once taken by 1970s and 1980s innovators such as Wipers, Gang of Four, and X...the weird era between punk and new wave" while "wrap[ping] themselves in atmosphere like Savages".

Reflecting drummer/lead vocalist Megan March's background as a graduate of the avant-garde Mills College music program, Street Eaters is noted for ambitious album themes and making forays into Sonic Youth–esque sound collage soundscapes, most notably on their 2017 album The Envoy (a concept album based on the Ursula K LeGuin books The Dispossessed and Left Hand of Darkness) and its 2018 instrumental companion release Inhabitations of Time.
