Today marks the release of the latest Traps 7" single, which is great for several reasons. The obvious first reason being that, hey, it's Traps, they're fucking terrific.
-Mass Hyperbole, 2009
The wax package is also worth checking out for the impressive ‘Brainwasher’ on the b-side. It’s a startling track from a very tidy little 7”.
-Mess and Noise, 2009
It was indie rock, plain and simple...but it felt new. Even though I had a horde of talented headliners to go, Traps had already made the afternoon worthwhile.
-Fasterlouder, 2009
Their loud, catchy, pretense-free rock and roll feels like a gulp of cold beer after months of sipping on the sickly-sweet electro cocktail that has flooded Sydney’s music scene.
-Oyster Magazine, 2008
It's impossible to ignore the fact that Traps are a talented band.
-Polaroids of Androids, 2008
Sydney indie rock four-piece Traps, blurring the lines between Arctic Monkeys, We Are Scientists and awesome.
