Generally it takes some time to get from level A to level B within the rock world. Swedish trio Bacon Wagon received their begin in 2003, launched some singles and splits and right here we’re 22 years later premiering a observe, “I-Beam,” from their debut full-length album, Trauma Cake. I don’t suppose these dudes—Kristoffer Kinberg (bass/vocals), Peter Johansson (drums), Marcus Kinberg (guitar/vocals)—have been, like, engaged on perfecting these tracks for greater than 20 years, it’s simply that they had been taking part in in different bands, elevating households and doing different Swedish stuff. Talking of households, Kristoffer’s daughter could be heard on this anthemic noise rock rumbler, an ode to office tragedies. If ’90s AmRep-style sludge floats your boat, “I-Beam” hits all these gnarled notes.
Trauma Cake was recorded, combined and mastered by Oliver Dahl at Studio Quaalude, Sweden. It’s set for launch on vinyl and digitally by way of Reptilian Information on June 6. Place your preorder right here or right here.
Marcus had this to say in regards to the observe:
“A tune about work-related accidents and recovering from them. It’s partly about an outdated work colleague that received his head hit by a metal beam and had a stroke from the hit and ended up being paralyzed. All three band members are craftsmen and have had our share of work-related mishaps that are baked within the lyrics. This tune has further cheerleading vocals by Kristoffer’s daughter, Elsa. Benefit from the feeling of getting harm!”
