It’s not for the cock, it’s for my favourite band.
There’s one reason that Trophy Scars are my favourite band, and it’s a reason why everyone else should give them a massive chance, and it’s that they are absolutely amazing.
I first came across Trophy Scars on a reccomendation on their newest album; Alphabet. Alphabets. It’s a prime example of something that the band do very well, an epic, well thought out, clever piece of music. I won’t insult the band by genreising them, and also I have very little idea where I would place them so i’ll let the band’s Last.fm description talk for them;
“Trophy Scars - not just a roving clan of substance abusing ninjas, but also a distinguished group of intelligent musicians. Trophy Scars uses their clever craft of swordplay and word manipulation to deliver a unique blend of tragedy; soaring pianos, epic guitars, lung-punching bass, acute percussion, screams, yells, and singing all crashing into each other - making for a new and unusual cocktail.”
I am posting my two favourite songs, one off two of their older EP’s, goodnight alchemy and Darts to the sea. I’ve neglected putting one up from either “Alphabet. Alphabets” because I feel that the album only works as a whole, and “Hospital Music For The Aesthetics Of Language” as I have only recently downloaded this and have yet to find a favourite.
I feel the songs I am posting characterise Trophy Scars perfectly, extreme changes that happen incredibly quickly, insane vocals and tuneful accompaniment and melodies. They are both worth a listen, and if you even half like either of the pieces I would 100% recommend getting “Alphabet. Alphabets” as it is possibly my favourite album ever.
TROPHY SCARS - TRAPS AND TRICKS AND SUCH

Trophy Scars are currently recording their second full length which they talk about HERE
I am also posting a song that I really like;
1) It’s fun and nice
2) Van She are always worth listening to
3) Dragonette sounds like this pokemon;
