Yuppiegrinder - Trolley Terror

https://grindtheyuppies.bandcamp.com/releases

This is the first demo borne of a dream to create a grind band with ‘grind’ in the name, actualised by five eclectic individuals who may or may not believe in such anarchist praxis as fucking about and having fun, while also remaining acutely aware of the systemic shitshow the world is currently shackled to. Of our members, we’re brown, we’re queer, we’re trans, we’re addicts, we’re together. Yuppiegrinder is as much a unified bunch of weirdos, as it is those weirdos individually.

Life sucks, so litter a shopping trolley frivolously into your local river and forget being an adult with adult ideas for a while.

released October 23, 2019

Recorded at Animal House 2019

Engineered by Adam 'King' Collins
