Biography
On their fourth full-length album "Poison Reverse," American Trappist explores the ways in which we might dress the old wounds—of depression and heartbreak, the wounds that we accumulate as we age, stemming from moments of vulnerability and change—in new ways. Sometimes this manifests as a literal dressing, as on "Lipstick," when they remind us to put on our face in the dark, to look for a reason to live and to find it. On the album's slower and moodier tracks, including, "Orlando," named for Virginia Woolf's deathless, gender-fluid protagonist from the novel of the same name, the dressing is more of a plea: for understanding, for a way forward and through. American Trappist was formed in 2015 in Philadelphia and has released three full-length albums, including their self-titled debut; Tentanda Via; and The Gate, which American Songwriter called a "welcomed escape, rampant with charismatic post-punk stylings.” Poison Reverse, recorded mostly live with engineer Matt Poirier (The War On Drugs, The National) at Miner St. studios in Philadelphia and mastered by Alan Douches (Angel Olsen, Ratboys) at West West Side in NY, also features Lewie II on bass, Shane Luckenbaugh on drums, and Max Kulicke on guitar. - Kit Haggard
