TRUPA TRUPA – OF THE SUN

Almost every song on Of The Sun-the magnetic fifth album from the Polish quartet Trupa Trupa-lands like an anthem, with barbed hooks driven by an italicized rhythm section and a chimera of crisscrossing harmonies. Throughout its propulsive 12-song sequence, this is an album that never lets up. From the relentlessly pulsing “Long Time Ago” to the deep glisten of “Longing,” Of The Sun is an unbroken string of hits in Trupa Trupa’s idiosyncratic, self-made universe. “Trupa Trupa bring some poetry and subtlety to psychedelic rock.” – Pitchfork “…the band weave absurd lyrics through liquifying guitar riffs, angular bass lines and concise percussion.” – The Wire
