Brick Layer Cake
Brick Layer Cake starts and ends with Todd Trainer (rhymes with �rocker�), drummer of such famed and crushing rock-and-roll bands Shellac, Rifle Sport and Breaking Circus. The Cake started out with Todd fooling around with his four track, and has boomed into a fully realized one-man rock band. The massive sounds are slower and to the bone. Simple structures give way to dense layers. And through it all is THAT VOICE--singing, talking, imploring, DEMANDING retribution on such things as rock stars, your wedding, and what�s her face, among other sordid activities.
Albini said it best, �think of Nick Drake on downers fronting Black Sabbath, if Black Sabbath played only the good parts of their songs."
