Turkish Delight (the band)

All I can find is this: Turkish Delight are a band from Boston that plays atonal rock that harks back to DNA's no-wave, but not quite as extreme. Sister Meringue, the most accessible song on Tommy Bell (Castle Von Buhler, 1996), could actually fit on a late Sonic Youth album. The band split and then released Howcha Magowcha (Archenemy, 1998) Half of the band joined Betwixt, that released the single Lucky 13 (Castle von Buhler) and the album Moustache (Arch Enemy). (from Scaruffi)

I have a single of theirs with a song called 'Spin' on it-- totally awesome sound. Should I try to find copies of this stuff?

twelve years pass...

A bit late to the party, but we're reissuing both of TD albums - Tommy Bell is sold out, but we still got about 40 copies of HM
