Two years after the release of 'Comes To Your House' (Southern Records)
and countless shows of hysteric noise and chaos worldwide they now deem
the world to be ready for the next chapterà and their finest moment yet!
A slight line-up change, enough songs written for a triple album (and
then disgarded as not being good enough!), a new studio and a new label
(Riot Season) have all led to the band now becoming a tighter deal
altogether. After a kiss and a hug from Southern, TODD felt the time had
come to go it alone. They retreated to their island studio and began to
strip everything back yet always keeping in mind what playing music meant
to them. Slowly the songs began to come. Bursts of noise played over and
over again until they began to take shape. Recorded 'in the red' in two
days, mixed in a week then realised fully back at the mysterious TODDranch,
"Big Ripper" was ready. It needed a home and only one home came to mind.
Through a gentleman's agreement the deal with Riot Season was done.
The rest will be history...
Their balance of riffs, noise and magic is now even more astonishing while
keeping the same intensity and beauty as they've always had. "Big Ripper"
is an absolute killer on all levels. From the machine gun fire of 'Arista
Disco' to the wall shaking 'Happy Easter Florida' via the super heavy 'The
Rub' and the drugged despair of 'French and in France', TODD have mastered
their art, blown it apart and started again.
"Big Ripper" is the one. The one they have always threatened to do. It is
the sound of TODD inside your house. You don't get bands like this anymore
and this third full length set is sure to leave many a jaw nailed to the
floor. It's menacing, beautiful and above all the most intense thing you
are likely to hear for a long, long time.
