Coming right at the tail end of all things melodic, just before the dark and gloom of grunge, descended Trixter. They made a loud splash with a killer first album and a couple of big radio friendly singles in One In A Million and Give It To Me Good. They have continued sporadically releasing new music and playing shows. This vinyl album was released on CD in 2012 but this version came out in 2022.
The band revolves around the amazing talents of guitarist/vocalist Steve Brown and bassist/vocalist PJ Farley. The one thing about this record is that it is as though the dark days of gloom never happened and this could have been a follow up to their first album, it’s just a great fun positive vibe record. They say class always shines through and this record oozes it from every pore. So many great songs like Drag Me Down, Dirty Love, Ride, Physical Attraction, Save Your Soul, and my personal fave, Machine.
These guys are just great songwriters. When they perform live, they give it everything, and Steve Brown is one hell of a player. Great album!
9/10 from The Grooveman.
