Synopsis

Album Description

Extra catchy, concise and with a lyrical edge not usually seen in today's music. Touches on everything from having your heart creamed to fighting with coworkers over the proper office temperature to the joy of installing a new toilet seat. Trigger Finger delivers tunes that alternate punkish angst and true tenderness in neat little 2 minute pop snacks that will leave you craving more.

CD Reviews

The good kind of confusion!

Roger Steen | Reno, NV | 11/13/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Sometimes confusion is good. This CD is a prime example. On some songs, lead Trigger Wayne Resnick sounds like the angriest man who ever lived. Yet, check out a pure ballad like "Sell Your Stuff" for a truly tender and vulnerable offering. A great thing about this album is that the lyrics are free of those typical pop music cliches. Whether funny, cutting or touching, the lyrics are fresh and to the point. The selections also skitter around stylisitically. Punky thrash here, a string laced ballad there, an acoustic folk tune after that. What works is that it is all tuneful. If you like They Might Be Giants or The Replacements, you will probably like this as much or better. And with 25 songs, it's a bargain as well!"

Holy Sox! This CD is awesome!!

Carlo Craigmont | Chicago, IL USA | 10/11/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD is a revelation. The tunes are extremely catchy and stick in your head for days on end. The lyrics are...profane, inspired, touching, angry, fresh, often hilarious and sometimes pure poetry. It's all here: Power pop, folk, punk, a ballad or two. Trigger Finger packs 25 strong nuggets into one truly delightful offering. This is some of the strongest songwriting to be had in popular music today. The only caveat is that the lyrics can get pretty intense. If you are easily offended you will NOT want to hear this CD. However, the lyrics are not your garden variety low-brow banality, they are intelligent and witty. And every song is short and sweet."
