Hailing from Chicago, USA comes the rocking monsters Trickshooter Social Club. Mixing classic raw rocking tunes with deeply heartfelt ones, they dropped their latest EP Wilderness Radio on the 31st of March 2023 and for those who haven’t listened to it yet, you’re in for a treat. Let me tell you more about it.
Wilderness Radio kicks off with the heavy energetic Girl Vs. Monster. A fuzzy tune with a haunting groove and a pretty catchy dual-vocal melody. It has strong sludge and stoner vibes with engaging irresistible violin melody, relentless enjoyable jazzy drumming, and one of the coolest basslines I’ve listened to in a while, amazing opener. With bright sound and warm dreamy vocals, Trickshooter Social Club steers to a more mellow mood on Say Anything. It has a chill soothing flow with sweet heartfelt melodies flowing smoothly within a tight enjoyable structure with a colorful uplifting production, and some violins and piano work that aim straight for your heart. Run All Night comes next boosting the record’s dynamics to the roof and showing Trickshooter Social Club‘s pure rock n’ roll influences. It has a solid hard rocking sound with shredding solos, distorted intimidating riffs, and heavily dynamic shifts that’ll send the listeners off their seats and drive the crowd crazy when played live. Ending the EP on a deeply emotional note, Bury Me In Light comes next. The mix between piano, violin, and those floating guitars created a touching layer that I believe forms an unbreakable bond between the artist and listener. It has a simple structure that depends on Trickshooter Social Club‘s writing skills that shines brightly in the way they arranged and layered their elements to reach for such a beautiful from-the-heart ending of Wilderness Radio.
Trickshooter Social Club managed to flex their writing skills and show their different sides and sounds cleverly on Wilderness Radio. With just a 12 minutes EP, they took us on a musical journey with well-thought and executed dynamics that’ll keep you hooked and entertained right from the 1st to the last note, with diverse moods and vibes that made me already looking forward to their upcoming release. Keep on rocking guys, will be waiting for more. Cheers!
