Known mostly for their unconventional approach to songwriting and recording, Big Stick's music varies and jumps through different genres and categories, touching on punk rock, industrial music, and art rock and brutally simple performance style. History Big Stick achieved domestic and foreign cult status with their rock-punk-pop debut release, the ''Drag Racing'' EP in 1986.
