BITCH ASS PISS ROCK

About Me

A place of almost unimaginable power, chock full of dark forces and vicious secrets….spirits there are as likely to rip the flesh from your bones than greet you with a happy "good day"…And to harvest these spirits in this hidden land…would offer up a power so vast that its bearer might reorder the Earth itself to his liking.

here are some kind words already been said about this release:
"They're clever bastards, these northerners!...rather than hammer the listener's semses with simillar-sounding aural assaults, they challenge,provoke and tease with varying moods and textures...Imagine the Bronx if they hit downers every now and then, awesome! 8/10" Rocksound Magazine August 2007 Issue 99
"SINGLE OF THE WEEK. This is intense, epic, hard boiled where it needs to be, they’re not afraid to play with the dynamics of quiet and unconventional song lengths are not a problem, neither is galloping straight at your head with a punch or two of full on metal violence, chargers indeed. Something good kicking off here both in terms of the label and the band. A damn fine start, we look forward to more from both parties, we like danger- " Organ Art.
" Quite how a group this good, have come from out of nowhere this fast, remains unexplained but, if you're a fan of WILL HAVEN or COALESCE or simply can't wait to hear what the end of the universe sounds like, just be glad Truckdriver Jr got behind the wheel." Moderate Rock.
"Starting with the prowling menace of an early Ministry record, and them, boom, the band launch into the gonzoid punk-groove of Black Flag playing Bronx tunes... this is vibrant, explosive music that is full of passion, and deserved of your undivided attention!" Subba-Cultcha.
"Stoke’s Truckdriver Jnr are a noisy affair. But again the Potteries was responsible for inventing thrash – Discharge were famously the first band ever to take punk and to grind it into a furiously paced attack. Truckdriver though are more refined in tempo but use their guitars as crushing weapons, fuzzed and sharpened up." Manchester Music.
"...Its heavy and rides the very thin line between rhythmic and monotonous, but if you like bands like Devil Sold His Soul you’ll know what I mean... Keep an eye out not only for this band, but for their label too. It’s more than a good start. Best tracks: ‘We are Men of Action’ and ‘Pretty Black’.." Tasty Fanzine.
