Die Trailer Trash Tracys sind das jüngste Signing auf Dominos Sublabel Double Six. Der NME beschreibt den Sound des Londoner Quartetts als "Low-lit, hot breathed noise pop that could just as easily be transported from a David Lynch soundtrack...gorgeous". Andere Medien beschreiben die Musik der Band als geniale Fusion aus Shoegaze, Indie und Dream Pop! Zweifelsohne gelingt den Briten mit "Ester" ein beachtliches Debüt!
Product Information
Inhabiting their own beautifully dark, ethereal corner of the musical universe, poised somewhere at the crossroads between the nocturnal, rolling soundscapes of Angelo Badalamenti and the sublime, naive melodies of 50s pop, Trailer Trash Tracys are a deliciously unique proposition.
Recorded by the band themselves on a “solfeggio scale” – a scale to which, apparently, western guitars and pianos are not pitched to – Ester is an ambitious achievement that marries an experimental urge with a love for the standards and classics of pop eternal.
The freeform intro “Rolling - Kiss The Universe” leads us into Trailer Trash Tracys’ own otherworldy sonic space in which their ideas play freely. Deep and hazy sonic textures drift around singer Suzanne Aztoria’s gossamer light vocals, which sound as though they were beamed from another dimension, evoking a sensual, yet unnerving tension. The album progresses to reveal ever expanding possibilities, running the gamut from the spiralling guitar shreds of “Engelhardt’s Arizona” to the gloriously seductive and brooding pop of "You Wish You Were Red”, out to the delicate, pinprick orchestrations of “Starlatine”. The smouldering slow-burn of “Turkish Heights”, meanwhile, closes the album in poignant style, romantic, dreamy and sincere, revealing a tender heart beating indelibly inside the machine.
With Ester, the inimitable world of Trailer Trash Tracys is brought to haunting, vivid life (in a visual sense as well, with Kurt Ralske responsible for the artwork) – a little off-kilter, a little askew, but nothing less than utterly beguiling and completely memorable.
Rezensionen
,,Keine Girl Group übrigens, aber eine Band, die sich einige Errungenschaften der Girl-Group-Ära zunutze macht für einen prächtigen Pop-Entwurf, der kontinuierlich zwischen hell und dunkel oszilliert und sich nicht vor Expeditionen in Randgebiete und idiosynkratische Soundgegenden scheut." (musikexpress, Februar 2012)
,,Verheißungsvolles Pop-Kopfkino." (Stereoplay, März 2012)
,,Erstaunlich, wie ingeniöse Sound-Einfälle sattsam bekannte Bassläufe und die berechenbare Sturheit eines Drum-Computers zu überlisten wissen. Und beachtlich, wie es Susanne Aztoria mit mädchenhaftem Charme gelingt, delikate Momente wie auch anrührende Exaltation zu verkaufen." (Rolling Stone, März 2012)
