New York Punks Cheena Announce Their Glammy and Hooky Debut LP

The five-piece have shared “Car" a track from their upcoming debut album ‘Spend the Night With…’

There’s a lot of New York in Cheena. From the scuzz of the Dolls to the sleaze of Street Hassle-era Lou Reed, the five-piece blast a sound that oozes some big city action. This is music for stumbling from a late night bodega with a sack of Tecate to keep the party going.

Margaret Chardiet, Walker Behl, Keegan Dakkar, Logan Montana, and Eugene Terry—have been involved in various New York bands including; Crazy Spirit, Perdition, Pharmakon, and Hank Wood and the Hammerheads. But Cheena was formed in 2014 to toe away from musical boundaries: this was a band born to rock outside their own musical comfort zones.

Following the release of their 2014 All the Money That Cheena Can Buy cassette, and last year's 7-inch on Sacred Bones, the band are set to release their debut full-length Spend The Night With….

The album is described as a "soundtrack to nights where revelry and lust are never isolated from poor decisions and vanity," with musical touchstones including Iggy Pop, Gun Club, Hawkwind, and Sex Pistols.
