Fraser Stewart Traindodge rule and this latest album is another fine addition to their lengthy, yet essential discography. Favorite track: Rare Talk.

Scott A Smith Once again, it's near impossible to pick a favorite track off of a T-Dodge album because of how many bangers there are, but a greater point is how long they've been producing records that have this problem. It's been a minute. Long live T-Dodge! Favorite track: The Lonely Halt.

Face Thieves 05:06
I was better than this But here I am counting the ways in silence I can't leave a trace And I can't be seen It would work Who knows What goes down in the shadows? True form It's only what it takes Who knows What goes down when you're not around? True or wrong Let me have my mistake I haven't told a soul And I thought it through more than once You may never know And I might regret what it's worth Who knows What goes down in the shadows? True form It's only what it takes Who knows What goes down when you're not around? True or wrong Let me have my mistake What goes down in the shadows? It's only what it takes What goes down when you're not around? It's my mistake

about

After two decades of timeless records, Oklahoma City’s Traindodge continues their post-hardcore dynasty with the release of their eighth LP, "The Alley Parade." Yet, while the band’s collection of canonized albums have become required listening for every budding heavy band since the 90s, and their legacy of hundreds of shows (sharing stages with the likes of Mudhoney, Cursive, Avail, and Botch, to name a few) has impacted thousands, perhaps the biggest mystery surrounding Traindodge is how under-the-radar this band has flown throughout its prolific career. Whether it be a nod to the band’s integrity or an unwillingness to conform for commercial success, as journalist Jason Heller put it, “Unlike the hordes of post-hardcore wannabes who think screams, noise and posing make the band, Traindodge synthesizes brainpower and horsepower into a contorted, rock-heavy wallop that’ll leave you scratching your head as much as banging it.”
