Baltimore’s Tripper Unleash “Pressed” & Announce “People Die Every Day” EP

Untamed and furious, Tripper are the next band primed to make waves out of the Baltimore hardcore scene. Today, the quartet announces their debut EP, People Die Every Day, that is due out on November 3rd and have also shared the lead single, Pressed. The speedy track packs bouncy riffs and a sharp, rage-filled vocal delivery from vocalist Alex Szydelska. Combining hardcore with powerviolence and more experimental elements, Tripper draws influence from bands like Converge and Punch, while also fitting right alongside acts like Jivebomb and Gouge Away.

“I’ve mostly written about my experience with mental health – some moments that changed me and exploring difficult feelings – but generally want our songs to be positive or perhaps empowering. ‘Pressed’ is about recovering from CPTSD and feeling like it’s never ending, but also the process of coming back to yourself.” (Alex Szydelska)
