InfluencesOld tube amps, thin washy cymbals, sound collages, church organs, finger snaps, the quiet dignity of the Woolworth building, guys named Edgar, girls named Marge. Telethons too.
Sounds Like"...Gutsy and vibrant, Words Trails Maps is a record that will demand your attention almost as much as it rewards it. It’s a record that captures both the heat of the sex as well as the post-coital embrace afterwards, a record that is as lived-in as it sounds. Invest a few hours into repeated listenings; you won’t be disappointed."
-The Power of Pop, June '09

"If it was ever possible for the music of a band to grow on you, this could very well be the band making the music..."
-Local Vertical Blog, May '09

"They bring together alt-country, quirky pop hooks and literary lyrics..."
-Perpetual Toxins Blog, April '09

"Trashed On Fiction’s songs worm their way to the brain and dwell there for days..."

   About Trashed On Fiction
Brooklyn-Jersey City based Trashed On Fiction has been steadily gaining attention with recent shows and an unofficial endorsement by Barack Obama (very unofficial, likely an outright lie). Influenced by the roots-rock of Creedence Clearwater Revival, Neil Young, The Band, the early country rock of Gram Parsons and their latter-day disciples Wilco, as well as the Midwest alt-rock of the Replacements. Trashed On Fiction synthesizes these bands into infectious, noisy rock and roll songs about awkward romantic relationships, an apathetic folk hero, baggage (lots of baggage), The Woolworth building, a celebrity stalker and removing your clothes. That's the first half of the new record anyway.

Trashed On Fiction spent a better part of two years working on their album, Words Trails Maps, scrapping the initial entire studio recording and redoing it themselves after-hours in a music store, a kitchen, the back of a van, and the theater stage of a certain college very late at night. The result giving the songs a warm, intimate, lived-in feeling while still sounding like it could have been recorded at Abbey Road.

Words Trails Maps is an album not just about growing older, or leaving home, the surreal characters we call friends, or the cavalier hearts of youth. But the contemplative silence between these experiences, and the jubilant debauchery afterward.

RIYL: Pavement, The Replacements, The Band, The Zombies, Patsy Cline, Built To Spill, Tom Petty, Elvis Costello, The Hold Steady, Beer and Coffee
