Worm Trouble is a band that translates images and emotions into a
vibrant reality. Their sophomore CD, The
Poison Kitchen, adds a range and depth that wasn’t able to be
explored in their first release. Worm Trouble is a three piece band consisting
of Michael Trenhaile on vocals and guitar, Kathryn Ellinger on bass and
vocals, and Greg Johnson on drums.
The
Poison Kitchen contains many songs with bizarre themes couched in
catchy lyrics and music. One example of this is “City of Sin” which tells
of a Biblical city’s fall and ends on a surprisingly good note. “Riots”
describes a chaotic scene of mayhem in clear lyrics and emotion. Both
“Amsterdam” and “The Ladder” are slower ballads that still thrive on
the reality of Worm Trouble’s sound. Pay careful attention to Ellinger’s
intros on “Thunder Rises” and “Eye of the Damned” and Trenhaile’s
guitar intro of “The Ladder.”
Worm Trouble has found their place with The
Poison Kitchen. It is not in alternative, goth, or rock but in a
blend of all three that leave the listener craving more.
