SWORDFISHTROMBONES
are Karel Krticka - guitar, Miloš Rejsek - vocal, Alois Ponížil - horns & keys, Martin Zaplatílek - bass, and Dan Petr - drums.
They formed the band in Brno (Czech Republic) some time ago, and their stubborn attempts to take on traditional ways of songwritting and recording have earned then sort of a maverick, and local heroes reputation. Their early recordings are self-produced, raw and documentary, reflecting their live bluesy, psychedelic and garage-rock sound, while the recent ones tend to shift towards rather polished and elaborated studio takes and mixes with more indie-rock, shoe-gazing approach. The mixture of their past and present adventures somehow defines the unique universe of their wonderful music, climaxing in the making of their 4th regular album due to come in 2009. Live performances of SFT oscillate between rather chaotic, nervous raw stuff and slow, more melancholic songs.
Your music makes me want to set the world on fire and bathe in the ashes of all the dead while drinking the blood of a thousand sacrificed virgins. ;] hails!
