New Skin For Old Children

Aaron Ott Great collection of songs. Has a more personal vibe and is more eclectic than some of the Unwound records. Might not be what you may expect from Trosper compared to Unwound or Survival Knife, but I was pleasantly surprised. Only track I didn't dig was the final one....the female singer just didn't really seem to fit in the mix or blend with Justin's voice. Still worth a listen for the stellar instrumentation. Favorite track: The Staircase.

Conan Neutron Justin Trosper is back... and this time, it's PERSONAL. Seriously though, the Unwound guitarist is back with secret weapon Sara Lund on drums and a good portion of the very excellent band Two Ton Boa for a romp of intelligent, moody, sometimes angular, mostly shoegazey tunes that are sure to appeal to Unwound fans and many others as well. With quiet authority, New Skin...not only rewards multiple listens with it's lush beauty, the hooks are immediate. Favorite track: Good Grief.

Bryan Santizo JTRO returns with a vengeance. More melodic, textured, and "song"-based than ever before. I pray this band lasts longer than Survival Knife. Favorite track: Back to Snowdonia.

about

Nocturnal Habits marks a return for influential guitarist/vocalist Justin Trosper. His work in the seminal post hardcore band Unwound and more recently the angular rock of Survival Knife are evident in the overall sound of New Skin For Old Children, however there is a new tone, focused more sharply on the songwriting and production. The angles have been softened to create crushing, blunt force blows rather than sharp cuts.

Recorded throughout the world from Italy to Los Angeles and the backwoods of the Northwest New Skin For Old Children reunites Trosper with Sara Lund, his Unwound collaborator and so called “secret weapon,” as well as Dale Crover (Melvins), Sherry Fraser, and Scott Seckington (Two Ton Boa).
