Surely when you come across a band name such as Trash Fiasco you have to take a listen. That’s what we did here at DeClunk HQ. Now you can too.
Back in December, the boisterous garage-punk trio, Trash Fiasco, announced their upcoming LP, Exist as Instructed (due 3/20). Today, the band is dropping off their bellowing third single from the record, “Turned To Prey”. A showcase of the band’s extremes, Turned to Prey pairs crooning verses with jolting choruses. The result is a manic amalgamation of sounds that will give you whiplash. “Turned to Prey” is an introspection of a character deciding between a safe life and an exemplary one. Measuring the consequences, the narrator lingers on the excruciating pain of letting time pass you by while delaying a life changing decision. Eventually, the character acknowledges that turning back isn’t an option, though moving forward is terrifying. Recorded at Chicago’s Million Yen Studios with engineer Dave Lugo, “Turned to Prey” exemplifies the LP’s theme of character driven internalized rage, all while showcasing the extreme musical spectrum of Trash Fiasco.
