Press Reviews "Bourbon-Blues for the Detroit Millenium. Saw Tran strikes a chord with every grifter, lover, fighter or wino that has sat on the bottom side of the bar." -- Steven Sheppard : Vancouver Vanguard Texans currently rattling around in Gotham City, Saw Tran willingly label themselves ‘Trash Rock’, and although their grooves are as filthy as a rock dives’ men’s room after a Zen Guerilla show, they bear almost no resemblance to the broken amped, balding record store clerk retro fuzz punk slop usually associated with the genre. No, Saw Tran are riff rockers at heart, as flame throwing as the MC5 under siege and as redneck motherfuckered as vintage ZZ Top, with a streak of Urge Overkill suave snaking through the din. Songs like "Look what you do to me" and "Memphis" fairly bleed with road house authenticity, and I could easily imagine the Tran trading off late night licks with Steve Earle, or Ronnie, or any Earle you got really, to a room full of Johnny Cash outlaws, just as well as burning the stage to the ground with sleaze punks like the Dragons. Why these cats haven’t been snatched up by Junk or Get Hip or one of these other snarky uber-cool labels is beyond me, because they’re one Linda Blair song away from being the next Supersuckers. Rock with the roll firmly intact. www.sleazegrinder.com
