TRAILERPARKS - CD

With equal nods to John Fahey, Henry Flynt, and Jackie-O Motherfucker, Trailerparks' 10 tracks are a long and sprawling rustic folk soundscape full of spooky, headphones-friendly noise interludes and breathy micro-drones amidst full-band songs and dark-toned solo pieces. The tracks ambitiously follow the course of one year in the life of its characters, each track taking on a month or a series of months. Produced by Thaddeus Christian, it's a record packed with lyrics, stories of rainy, troubled nights stuck in crumbling mansions, drugged-out kids in clubs, and lonely sun-drenched highways. Says Gnade about the record, “The lyrics are dark, but there’s hope in the end. The plotline curves towards the light midway through, when the characters—who are the same characters from the rest of my songs and from my book Hymn California—find adventures and try to shake off the doom they’ve been living with all spring and winter.”
