TRACE MOUNTAINS
HOUSE OF CONFUSION (LTD. PINK VINYL) (LAME-O RECORDS)
HOUSE OF CONFUSION is Trace Mountains' third album & the rugged, earthier follow-up companion to 2020's Lost in the Country.
The songs & arrangements on HOUSE OF CONFUSION lean ever-more into the rootsier impulses of "Lost in the Country", relying heavily on live recording & instrumentation that features the acoustic guitar & pedal steel.
This shift reveals a new, understated complexity within the songs & the tangible, tactile nature of the performances, evoking the free-flowing nature of influences like Tom Petty or Built to Spill, all-throughout imbued with the energy of Country icon Emmylou Harris' cult classic & band favorite, Wrecking Ball.
The album is comprised of road songs, rock songs, country songs, religious songs, disco songs, satanic songs, jams & simple tunes, laid out in careful presentation _ to use at your leisure.
