Traams // Traams

Traams first came to our attention a few months back when supporting Brown Brogues at Shacklewell Arms and, given that they are now the subject of a post in their own right, shows what an impression they made.

Grungey garage with a lithe groove and art-punk, spite-filled vocals is Traams' thing, as evidenced on their Bratwell produced and released, self titled EP from January. Flowers and Demons have a hint of The Cribs' whiskey fueled, line skirting punk-pop immediacy, Grin has a Santana-esque blues swing, while closer Klaus is a menacing, cholstrophobic, creeping blast of post-punk.

Expect a lot more from the London trio in coming months, and if you want a real good time, catch them at the Old Queen's Head on 14th June.
