Editing Treble Charger (section)

===Early years (1992–1996)===
Originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, the band consisted of Nori, Priddle, Rosie Martin and [[Morris Palter]] and was named '''NC-17''' (after the movie rating) until 1994 when an [[United States|American]] band with the same name threatened to sue. They adopted the name Treble Charger but named their debut album ''[[NC17 (album)|NC17]]''. ''NC17'' was released independently at first by Smokin' Worm in 1994,<ref name="Inc.1995">{{cite magazine|author=Larry LeBlanc|title=Canada: Who's Who|magazine=Billboard|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=sAsEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA80|date=4 February 1995|publisher=Nielsen Business Media, Inc.|pages=80–|issn=0006-2510}}</ref> but it was a hit on [[college radio|campus radio]], [[MuchMusic]], and [[CFNY]] when it was re-released by [[Sonic Unyon Records]] in 1997.<ref name="Inc.1995a">{{cite magazine|author=Larry LeBlanc|title=Sonic Unyon Stays True to its Artists|magazine=Billboard|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9A0EAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA64|date=23 September 1995|publisher=Nielsen Business Media, Inc.|pages=64–|issn=0006-2510}}</ref>
