Throaty, ethereal, grumpy rock.
Trudgers delivers a roving cavalcade of emotive
offerings that drive the listener into fits. All the
right mixes of electronic ambiance and vocals lead
this band into a space in your consciousness that
you always
knew existed but never wanted to admit was there. Like
opening a door of noise and entering a space of lost
love that you're just coming to terms with,
Trudgers resides in a space not completely here
nor there.
A strong bass presence and screaming
guitar turn the sound into peaking spikes floating
above the bedrock of the vocals. The lead male
singer reminds me of Brad Roberts from Canadian band
Crash Test Dummies... but with spite and verve which
rounds him
out quite smoothly. Their EP BEDROOMS ON FIRE
can be found on
GOATY TAPES and they are on "MOIST MOUTHS EJECT"
a compilation 12" on
FAMILY TIME.
