„Polonais déjà crédibles à l’occasion de leurs précédents albums (Headache puis Jolly new songs), dans une veine indé bien tenue, Trupa Trupa nous fait le bonheur d’un nouvel essai, qu’il appellera Of the sun. A la fois tendu (Remainder, excellent, aux airs de Sonic Youth/Pavement) et nuancé avec panache, l’album rend une copie irréprochable. Les hommes de Gdansk y démarrent de façon saccadée; la batterie impulse, rejointe par la basse, un groove qui ne nous quitte pas (Dream about, plutôt rêveur, en ouverture). D’encarts psyché animés en salves plus appuyées, le combo de Grzegorz Kwiatkowski, Tomek Pawluczuk, Wojtek Juchniewicz et Rafal Wojczal justifie sa signature chez Glitterbeat, dédié aux courants audacieux. Il “pervertit” ses trames douces, met aussi une forme de douceur dans ses plans sauvages. Ses motifs, tels ceux qui jonchent le titre d’ouverture, font mouche. Dalej Recenzja Of The Sun – Muzzart

„I polacchi Trupa Trupa sono bravi musicisti ma anche ottimi manager di sé stessi perché, partendo da Danzica, sono arrivati ad una delle più intriganti label in circolazione quale la Glitterbeat dopo quattro album, i primi due dei quali autoprodotti. Nel corso del tempo poi hanno suonato in vari e prestigiosi festival internazionali tra cui il Primavera Sound di Barcellona e il SXSW di Austin facendo apprezzare a vaste platee il loro sound ricco di umori new wave e vagamente post rock dove è ben presente una bella vena melodica assieme a frammenti più graffianti. La proposta della formazione è priva di fronzoli poiché concede ampio spazio ad una sezione ritmica secca e precisa e alle chitarre dagli essenziali riff mentre il cantato è quasi una litania molto efficace nella sua linearità. Maturo.”

„Trupa Trupa beams are gonna blind me. Well, if the beams in question are coming Of The Sun I suppose you’d expect nothing less. This Polish quartet serve up big, reverb-drenched post-punk on their latest LP. The cavernous sound of tracks like ‘Remainder’ is somewhere on the sliding scale between mid-period Deerhunter and Protomartyr at their most bullish. Somewhere in the crowd there’s you.”

„The second Glitterbeat release to feature in my roundup up this month, the counterbalanced Polish band Trupa Trupa couldn’t be further apart, sound wise, from the more languid looseness dub of their label mates Baba ZuLa. Dalej Recenzja Of The Sun – Monolith Cocktail

„A self-described poet, Grzegorz Kwiatkowski is careful with his words. This care oozes through every second of Trupa Trupa’s music. Unwaveringly fair and thoughtful, Trupa Trupa dodge the brattiness can dog modern punk and post-punk. Dalej Recenzja Of The Sun – No Wave

„The Polish singer and poet on the dark themes he feels his band’s new LP Of The Sun is laden with.

Writing, or reading into existing writing, messages about the dark side of humanity is a compulsion for Trupa Trupa member Grzegorz Kwiatkowski. Dalej Artykuł o Trupie Trupa – Gigwise

„Trupa Trupa (“a corpse’s troupe”) hail from Gdansk in Poland, historically part of the powerful Hanseatic League and birthplace of that philosopher of pessimism Arthur Schopenhauer, iconic actor Klaus Kinsky and the calamitous Solidarnosc. Dalej Recenzja Of The Sun – Morning Star
