Trapper continues his compelling foray into progressive rock with the Addled album. Nervous guitar leads, grooveful instrumentals, searing synths, tasty bass, unpredictable song structure, questionable lyrics, unyielding percussion, notable strummability, calming pianos, and disturbing vocals. Based in emotion, not intellect; there is a natural sense of honesty to these songs.
Whelming Praise For “Addled”:
“Oh my”
“Tense but pretty”
“This is what happens when there’s no adult supervision!”
“This stuff is either seriously deep or profoundly shallow.”
“If these songs didn’t already exist, it would be necessary to invent them.”
“This can’t have been what you had in mind…”
“Well, at least you didn’t over think it.”
“Confusion. Enticement. Despair. Joy. Repeat.”
“This one is clearly better.”
