Details Lead Performance: Trenchmouth

The Chicago quartet Trenchmouth teeters on the edge of sophisticated polyrhythmic dissonance and controlled chaos on Trenchmouth Vs. the Light of the Sun. At once hypnotic and herky-jerky, the harsh vocals and harsher guitars complement a percussive collision reminiscent of the Clash. More for intellectual moshers than for the musically squeamish.
