There's Power In The Union

Union TradeThe Union Trade
Genre: Rock / Shoegaze / Experimental
From: San Francisco, California, United States


Formed in San Francisco in the spring of 2006 The Union Trade manipulate their instruments like a gang of mad puppeteers changing tempo and structure at will.


The band take on the combined sounds of Mogwai, Explosions In The Sky and Slint and beat them until their battered, bruised and bloody. It's visceral post rock experimentalism that's the aural equivalent of swimming in a lava lamp and not for the faint at heart.
