In 2003, upon the disbanding of seminal Swedish noise rock band Acid Ape, brothers Marcus and Kristoffer Kinberg started BACON WAGON. 2004 saw them record a self-released split 7” with fellow rockers Instrumen. After trying a bunch of guitarists, Marcus switched from drums to guitar/vocals, and in 2005, the band recorded and released a six-song EP, Savant, released on Maduro Records. Shortly after, Peter Johansson, who played drums in Instrumen, quit his band and joined BACON WAGON, which turned out to be the perfect lineup. In 2006, BACON WAGON hooked up with Baltimore noise rockers Dactyl for a split 7” on Hit-Dat Records and a US tour, and a couple of years later, the band was put on hiatus.

The brothers Kinberg continued onward in the new outfit Hooves Not Hands, and Peter later started the punk band Slöa Knivar and death metal band Bastard Grave. Fast forward to 2023 when the BACON WAGON crew finally got their shit together and wrote a slew of new songs. The band now finally arrives with their first ever full-length album, Trauma Cake.

Crackling with the expected caustic noise rock snarl and a filthy edge of tongue-in-cheek snark, Trauma Cake slaps the listener with ten ripping ragers fueled with punk energy and fuzz galore. One can picture the band members slyly cranking these dirges out amidst stacks of blown-out amps pumping forth plumes of blackened fumes while a cast of buzzed patrons light themselves aflame while slow-motion crowd-surfing.

Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Oliver Dahl at Studio Quaalude, Sweden, and completed with cover by Marcus Kinberg, Trauma Cake is prime auricle-abrasing sustenance for patrons of Hammerhead, Black Flag, Nirvana, Flipper, Tad, Melvins, Butthole Surfers, and anything with Steve Albini’s name in the lineup or the Amphetamine Reptile logo on it.
