Zitat: Trencher's debut album for Southern, "Lips", is a bludgeoning
feast of pummelling abstract metal punctuated by yells,
hollers and the occasional keyboard assault. Moving on from
the blink-and-you'll-miss- it grindcore absurdity of their
debut album – having surely honed the genre of the one-minute
Casio-metal song to utter perfection – Trencher on this record
are virtually prog in comparison with their old self, chucking
out songs of over three minutes and experimenting with new
song structures. "Lips" is by no means dull or sluggish,
however; still more fun than just about any other UK band
around, Trencher are also developing into a genuinely original
and visionary outfit.
