TRAILER BRIDE
Whine De Lune (Bloodshot)
Reviewed by John
Sekerka
Easily the best of Bloodshot's latest alt.country appetizers, Trailer
Bride deliver haunting country drawls about snakes, hotels, railroads
and sin. Not only is this puppy littered (just made that up) with fancy
banjo and mandolin pickin', but you also get a beeeaaaauuutifully
creepy saw howl to boot. Course all this would be for naught if it
weren't for the lovelorn, lazy, whiny and intoxicating voice of
Melissa Swingle. I always had a soft spot for the Swingle Singers,
but that's another, and I suppose unrelated story. Before I meander
any further I must urge you to seek this record out, for it will grab
your heart strings like no other. And you know yer heart strings are
in need of grabbin'.
