77+K7

Artist and TZ Friend Justin Bartlett threw down the art for the first full-length and 7" by under-the-radar bad-asses Trap Them, so I decided to give them a day in court...and may I just say "FUUUUUCK!!!"

Taking their name from the 1977 film by Joe D'Amato called Trap Them And Kill Them, this Salem, NH band began as a side-project for Ryan McKenney (vocalist of Backstabbers Inc) and Brian Izzi (guitarist of December Wolves) in 2001 while Izzi was beginning his stint as second guitarist for Backstabbers Inc. Influenced by bands as diverse as Black Flag and Entombed, 77+K7 bring both to the forefront resulting in a devastating amalgam of Heaviness and Sheer Slamability.

Check their first album Sleepwell Deconstructor for sure and grab some merch from their myspace page at www.myspace.com/trapthem or their newest Séance Prime from Deathwish Inc. at www.deathwishinc.com both produced by Kurt Ballou.
