TRIBUTE!

About Me

Formed in Davis, California, this criminally ignored band produced some of the most powerful and original music of the late Eighties and early Nineties. Each album showed a new sense of maturity in both their already unique lyrical narrative and their monstrous guitar arrangements. This was a band that could thread a haunting, thoughtful narrative through a bone-crushing feedback structure. Just as the band split, Trouser Press called Thin White Rope "...a truly great American band in its prime." (from Hidden Lands)
