{{Short description|American rock band}} {{Use mdy dates|date=June 2024}} {{Over-quotation|date=May 2021}} '''Cellular Chaos''' is an American noise-punk band from Brooklyn New York that was founded by Weasel Walter.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.tinymixtapes.com/music-review/cellular-chaos-cellular-chaos|title = Music Review: Cellular Chaos - Cellular Chaos}}</ref> Music journalist Brad Cohan described the band's status as such: <blockquote>"Cellular Chaos, black sheep of Brooklyn’s DIY noise-punk underground, have trudged on through myriad iterations, losing bassists at a furious clip and trading in drummers for drum machines while going label-less for a bulk of their lifespan. Still, these provocateurs have managed to churn out their gnarly and sweaty mishmash of glam raunch, rock histrionics and no wave noise-fuckery with a take-no-prisoners attitude.
Despite the roadblocks, Flying Luttenbachers mastermind Weasel Walter and vocalist Admiral Grey, the two constants of Cellular Chaos since its inception a half decade or so ago, have persevered, shoring up their lineup recently with drummer Rad Chaines and signing on with noise-rock institution Skin Graft Records.
That union has yielded fruit in the form of their Skin Graft debut, ''Diamond Teeth Clenched'', a scorched-earth statement propelled by animalistic wailing, neck-snapping guitar blowouts and a rhythm section (the since-departed bass/drums combo of Shayna Dulberger and Marc Edwards) to die for."<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://observer.com/2017/01/januarys-best-avant-garde-concerts/|title=The Month in Weird: January's Best Avant-Garde Concerts|website=The New York Observer|date=3 January 2017}}</ref></blockquote>
