Worcester, Massachusetts act BEWKENHEIMER, formerly trading under the handle of DR. BEWKENHEIMER, are fronted by erstwhile GEEZER and LD.50 vocalist Clark Brown. The group enlisted the services of two ex-CONTROLLED AGGRESSION personnel, guitarist Dan Bongiorno and bassist Brendan Cheever in early 2003.

It emerged in December of that year that Brown had joined forces with personnel from fellow Worcester, Hardcore bands CHANGE OF SYSTEM, HOOD and SEVEN HILL PSYCHOS in a brand new project dubbed CHAGRIN.
