Trap Them

Grindcore/crust punk band based in Seattle, USA, formed in 2001. Trap Them influences include hardcore punk bands such as M.D.C., Black Flag and Discharge; metal bands like Dismember and Entombed and experimental bands like Swans. Ryan McKenney's lyrics tend to deal with issues both personal and political, while recent material has also contained a conceptual element to its lyricism. The group's musical style consists of complex and sometimes discordant guitar work and d-beat and grindcore drumming styles.
