Trade Wind are releasing their new record with End Hits Records and I listened and reviewed it for our zine.

Trade Wind are band that consists of Jesse Barnett(guitar/vocals, Stick To Your Guns) and Tom Williams(guitar, Stray From The Path), both of them being important figures in the modern hardcore punk scene. Helped by Randy LeBoeuf (Bass) and Andrew McEnaney (drums), the guys play something entirely different than their above mentioned hardcore bands. This album contains 12 songs of emotional, indie alternative post hardcore with punk and pop influences. Trade Wind is the more introspective side of its members showing us the listeners their inner self, their inside, emotions, barring their hearts for our ears and minds. Gentle, but sometimes intense music, backed with emotional vocals and melodic, sometimes even surreal soundscape takes us to some other dimension for the duration of the album. I must also say that I love how piano is cleverly used in the song structures like for example in awesome title track or great I Can´t Believe You´re Gone. When you listen to this music, just close your eyes and pretend you are floating on some invisible sound wave, in the end of this record it will be a catharsis experience for you. Good one!
