About this album

  • Updated: 07/07/2008

 

 

Finger Trap is a EP recorded live for The KFFM Podcast Show. Porpoise played a full set in April 2008 to a packed cellar audience at the Katie Fitzgerald's pub in their home town of Stourbridge, UK. Everything was set for a great show until singer, Dave injured his hand the day before in a work related accident. After some time in A & E, he and guitarist Pete sat down and ran through a revised set whilst Dave took his 'good hand' to Synth which he'd not really played before, certainly not live in front of a packed room of people! It certainly gave the songs a more primative edge, mixing a comical New Wave vibe alongside a molten buzzsaw guitar sound. Bass player Jon's high end bass work took an almost lead guitar role. Everything came together on stage. There was no time for rehearsals. The band did their best. 'Finger Trap' is a snapshot of what happened that evening.

Celebrate: Cool riff... vocals were a bit quiet at first but got louder later on. all in all not a bad song. Geoff man: not as keen on this song, the guitars were to quiet and i couldnt make out a lot of the riffs at first. The vocals were good on this track though. Cuckoo Clock: very cool start... Sliver bullet: good start, not a bad verse, cool chorus. Dual vocals work well there. I like the intro riff a lot. lead in to the second verse works well. Knuckles: once again, interesting start. Its hard to hear much exept distortion from the guitar(s) at some points... but a good song overall. Dogs Dogs Dogs: Not a bad song but I think less distortion here so you can hear the riffs better... General points: I know that this is a live album but I would seriously reccomending using a more clear distortion so the guitar can be heard better. All in all I liked the album, and look forward to more 8).
