To hear Truckfighters’ music, is to hear the sounds of the desert. It’s in their wide open expanse, it’s in their grand open groove and dust-caked metal riffs. This is a band bred on the California badlands, on sprawling vistas and parched wilderness.
There is just one thing. They’re from Sweden.
Over the course of four critically acclaimed albums, Truckfighters have honed, tautened and expanded their sound, moving from out-and-out riffing to more melodic, crafted songwriting. Yet, inherent in everything is the fuzzed-out mania that defines them.
Over the course of five EPs and three previous albums, they have honed, tautened and expanded their sound, moving from out-and-out riffing to more melodic, crafted songwriting. Yet, inherent in everything is the fuzzed-out mania that defines them. “That fuzz is the sound in my head that I went to get out,” says Niklas. “The new record just has more of everything we’ve ever done. It’s melodic and groovy but very progressive too. The songwriting’s better.”
Now the guys are about to visit Australia to bring their fuzz rock downunder, and to celebrate we have some tickets to giveaway. Enter you details below for a chance to win!
