It's no surprise Tripwires spent the last six years refining their widescreen rock sound in Reading, England. Not because they clearly spent their formative years watching it's world renowned music festival.

Опубликовано: 6 июн. 2013 г. Tripwires: Rhys, Joe, Sam, Ben. Their debut album, Spacehopper, out June 17 (UK), June 18 (US).

On their debut album, Spacehopper, British indie psych unit Tripwires silently fold a wide array of influences, reference points, and production subtleties into their unassumingly jam-packed textural rock. Over the course of what feels at first like your run-of-the-mill shoegaze revivalist record, the band morphs almost song to song, moving through styles and shifts in mood with an understated flair.

Spacehopper is one of those records that feels like a living piece of history; in terms of influences, you simply can't move for the sounds of British bands from the nineties or, if your prefer, British bands who've now reformed who had their heyday in the nineties
