WatchTruckasauras Handled the 18+ night called Say What? at Chop Suey on Tax Day. Kinda like a Tea Bagger type o’ Thang. If you get my drift……. oh and the video sounds like shit but it’s a rad visual example of Seattles own Mash Hall rockin the spot. So turn that shit down and smoke some whitneys y’all.

So while most god fearing real Americans were busy last week with jobs and making sure they won’t be eating Alpo in their golden years Truckasauras were in the midst of what has been called “Hipster Spring Break”, SXSW. Though primarily known for all of the great music going down it’s about much, much more. It’s about seeing a legendary music act like Death and...

WatchTruckasauras played an excellent set the same night as Shabazz and THEESatisfaction at a club called Submerged, but only a few people were there to see it. Debuting new songs off its upcoming “Quarters” album, the melancholy/anthemic electro/hip-hop group showed a new side of itself with “Springteen,” a tentatively-titled song that was icy, seething and full of forward...

“As predicted, the musical highlight was instrumental group Truckasauras covering Fresh Espresso’s rap anthem “Diamond Pistols.” Truckasauras turned the song space-y, removing its bombastic horn section and transmitting a more sly swagger while using the same melody. With staccato bloops in the verse and sustained notes and...
