Trip the Wire – Trip the Wire
Album | 16/06/2023 | Independent
High Energy Rock
Seattle, WA, USA
For those who are not afraid of high energy, Trip the Wire’s selftitled debut album may be the soundtrack for going fast. The band from Seattle shoots giant thunderbolts of heavy rock sound and illuminates the night with their anthemic songs. Even though, Trip the Wire may not win prices for ingenuity, it is a highly entertaining Hard Rock album.
