If ELVIS COSTELLO shagged THE CARS and XTC and made a musical mutant child, that child would be TRIGGERS. If you hate HONEST, RIFF LADEN, HOOK INFUSED songs that hypnotize you with their MELODIES then, by all means, return to the pretentious moaning of some band of sods and do not listen to TRIGGERS.TRIGGERS were formed on the no nonsense streets of PITTSBURGH in 2005. They quickly dominated the Pittsburgh power pop scene and after releasing their enthusiastically received EP “Elude The Suits” they teamed up with acclaimed producer/engineer John Hiler (Smashing Pumpkins, Stephen Stills, The Frogs, Danzig) to begin recording their full length album “SMOKE SHOW” for Anomaly Records.The finished result did not fail to impress. “Smoke Show is a pure blast of smart vintage power pop.” “Triggers expel an effortless vocal-majority garage punk-rock tone…” “Triggers play music that just drips indie-pop…”The response to SMOKE SHOW has had TRIGGERS touring through the East and Midwest United States sharing the stage with Little Joy, French Kicks, and The Walkmen to name a few. TRIGGERS is working on a future tour of the West Coast with an eye towards the UK, JAPAN, and the MOON.
I'm kinda ashamed because I've had you guys on my page awhile, and I'm not sure if I ever listened to you until now. I saw you added new music though, and thought I'd check it out, and you guys are really good! I'll definately be listening to your music from now on! :)
