ROUTE ONE OR DIE

Three Trapped Tigers are three guys from London who first got together in 2007, and have released this album and another album, Silent Earthling, which I have not heard yet. But here's the reason why I haven't- this album is a whopper. What other album can you think of that mixes noise rock, post rock, math rock, IDM, and ambient? And to be honest, I am not certain if this album is any of those genres. It sounds like they all had sex, sure, but its offspring is a beautifully mutated beast who resembles all of the species of music I just listed. And this mutant is raucous. Not the sort of raucous that kills people, but the amiable sort of raucous, the sort that makes you want to hum loudly along, like you're listening to a goddamn national anthem that got addicted to caffeine. I highly recommend this album, and remember- this is a trio.
