Recenzja B FLAT A – KEXP
This Polish band’s sixth album is a well-crafted set of ominous rock ranging from driving, tension-filled post-punk to atmospheric psych-rock, with often-dark lyrics for these troubled times.
Recenzja B FLAT A – The Quietus
Imagine the Beatles and Velvet Underground reading Hannah Arendt while in the studio with film director Michael Haneke. That’s Trupa Trupa in a nutshell, a Gdańsk-based band who spent the last decade perfecting their balancing act between lyrical songs and crushing psychedelia.

“The new Trupa Trupa album B Flat A is really good.” – Henry Rollins
Recenzja Crops – Paul Levinson

Gdańsk, Poland’s Trupa Trupa just released their new album B FLAT A, that, according to frontman Grzegorz Kwiatkowski, explores “the wasteland of human nature where hatred and genocide are not just distant reverberations of Central European history but still resonate in contemporary reality,” and does so via visceral komische and post-punk inspired rock. You can listen to the whole album below.

31 New Songs Out Today – Brooklyn Vegan
Polish band Trupa Trupa will release new album B Flat A on February 11 and they’ve just shared the very well-shot video for new single “Uniforms.” The song starts as airy indie rock but devolves into a good bit of noisy fun by the end.
