THE TRUSSRODS

About Me

After several years of major musical dysfunction and various other musical projects the 2 members decided to at least make some efforts in the studio named Kneget localled in the centre of the city of Gothenburg. Power blackouts and bernaise sauced meals made the song "Satans curve" to be written and recorded all in all in 20 minutes. Later on this song were used in a TV-show.The band also recorded "Nitrous Baby" on demand by the TV-show host but were never to be used for the purpose it was ment for. The tapes were deleted by mistake and the only files left are the "Klippnitrous", this song also recorded in less than an hour. A hi revving, stick shifted, bigblock Mopar muscle car owned by Tony Harding was recorded during hard acceleration, a 500 $ ticket from the law and order made this recording quite expensive. The V8 sound in the chorus ending is the result of this recording.The latest song "Crashlanding on Semaphore Beach" is the result of a soundcheck for another surftune, usually all soundchecks between me and Tony results in a new tune. I named it after a journey to Adelaide, South Australia where i just crashlanded after more than 24hours flight from Sweden on the beautiful Semaphore Beach during a cold but refreshing day.
