We struggle with categorizing the Trikl Act; the band played math-ish rock, but there was something else in the mix that took them into a different realm. Maybe it's just the knowledge that the band featured Clinton St. John (along with Mark McCaul and Jordan Tettensor... and others?) that we read a folky sensitivity to these tracks. As much as the band can turn on a dime, they can also weave a narrative. It's a great preview of what was to come with the very excellent Cape May.
