God's Trash
(Jew(s) and Catholic(s))
Buy It @ CONNECT God's Trash on February 17, 2007. It is available for download on iTunes, eMusic, Napster, and others. It is currently on sale in Winston-Salem at Record Exchange, Borders, and Edward McKay Used Books and More, and in Greensboro at BB's Compact Discs.Jew(s) and Catholic(s) are a Winston-Salem, NC based duo comprised of upright bassist Alanna Meltzer and guitarist/vocalist/sequencist Eddie Garcia. Their combined elements of razor sharp rhythms, bowed bass, fuzzy guitar, and haunting vocals create an eerie density, a sound that wraps itself around the listener’s head and doesn’t let go. Their songs buzz with electric energy and intensity marked by commanding vocals and sharp dynamic shifts. Meltzer’s 10 years of orchestra experience and Garcia’s 14 years of rock band experience have shaped them into professional and dynamic songwriters and performers.“A Sonic Youth style noisescape from the duo of Alanna Meltzer on upright bass and Eddie Garcia on guitar, vocals and beats…. a sleeper in the hot rod world…. what’s under the hood will blow most away…. It’s hard to believe that these two are creating the monstrous layered soundscapes that are on this disc” J.R. Oliver of EarCandyMag.com.“The duo plays a unique blend of classical, rock and electronica… The instrumentals are fast and well blended with a futuristic, energetic feel…this band has exploded on the scene, playing tons of gigs in Winston-Salem and Greensboro, bringing their music to the masses,” Brittany Smith & Carla Kucinski of GoTriad.“A dark mix of raging garage rock riffs, smooth, bowed bass runs, and new wave beats and synths — kind of like the Strokes jamming with New Order at Juilliard…. Jew(s) and Catholic(s) performed a mesmerizing, passionate, and well received set,” Matthew S. Maynard of Southeast Performer Magazine.
