What others have said about Slowtrip: “There’s a delicious hard crunch to the quartet’s leaden, harmonized guitars, and, playing the loud/soft dynamic adroitly, their second single “Follow” whiplashes you back to the ’90s.”- Buzzbands.la “Slowtrip’s songwriting is a hazy, dream-like burst of melodic rock more in line w/ sugary grunge and shoegaze (grunge-gaze?) than anything remotely mosh.”- No Echo “SLOWTRIP balance noise with beauty and rage…”- The Deli Magazine |
