Having gotten his start in 1991, DJ Tron toured constantly across the United States and Canada for eight years, spinning at hardcore parties and distributing mix tapes. Blending his own elements of hardcore punk and twisted techno, Tron dove more into the maniacal side of dance music which resulted in a part of some controversy and an underground fanbase. His first full-length, Chrome Padded Cell, was released in 1999 and featured a severed hand giving the "sign of Satan" -- cuffed fist with the index and pinkie finger sticking out on the cover. ~ Mike DaRonco
