Since his wife left him in the 1980s, Tonetta has made intense sugar rush rock songs at home in Toronto. Now in his 60s and despite his reclusive lifestyle and utterly alienating persona, Tonetta's brand of coarse fuzz-pop has propelled him to 'internet sensation' status. He's gathered comparisons with Gary War and Ariel Pink, and been the star of articles on
The Quietus and
The Guardian and yet, somehow, he's remained a YouTube obscurity.
