Product Description Imagine you take the best of today's modern rock like QOTSA, Foo Fighters and Wolfmother, put it into a blender and mix it with more progressive bands like Opeth, Mars Volta, Fantomas... Then I think you got a good idea of what Truckfighters created on their third fullength effort, MANIA! That's actually a good word to describe the music, they invite the listeners to a full-scale rollercoaster ride into the magic word of the Truckfightersmania. A CD full of wonderful dynamic songwritings that are the bands trademark. Nicely and smooth they goes from angry to sweet and from mellow to tender. Yeah that's right! It's really hard to put words to describe it, it's like looking at a beautiful painting, is says more than 1000 words. After more than 200 live shows all over Europe, 2 European tours supporting the fuzz legends in Fu Manchu, Truckfighters have developed and explored new areas in music. The new album is different from their first fullength effort "Gravity X" released in 2005. You could hear some progress already on the "phi" album, but the journey is now completed, the circle is closed. New or old fan, you won't be disappointed, fasten your seatbelt! We present the new Truckfighters album MANIA.

Mania is grunge euphoria
Truckfighters are an English speaking Swedish grunge band that sounds something like a blend of Queens of the Stone Age and vintage Blue Cheer. The band implements melodic fuzz-tone bass reminiscent of Jack Cassidy during his Hot Tuna period, aggressive drum attacks that emulate John Bonham of Led Zeppelin, and chugging guitar styling that is one part Black Sabbath and one part punk rock. The sound engineering on all the Truckfighters' albums is impressively clean, detailed and well separated -- no low fidelity compression here! If any of this has any appeal to you, then "Mania" will prove to be a tasty morsel of grunge that's sure to put a smile on your face. Although the first track on the Mania album, "Last Curfew" starts off a little subdued, it slowly builds into a heavy crescendo. From that point forward the album rocks hard and steady. "Gravity X" and "Phi" are also very worth getting. I suggest the best way to listen to the Truckfighters is at full volume!

New to truck fighting
New to the truck fighting scene! Great kick back and tap your foot music. Excellent musicians. Could not decide which of there albums to buy first so I bought the first three. Great decision! Everyone has there preference, but I liked Mania the best, then Phi and then Gravity X, although every one of them is great, this was my "If I Had To Rate Them" order. You cannot go wrong with any of them.

Monte Gargano is one of the best songs by any band in the last decade
Monte Gargano is one of the best songs by any band in the last decade, and the rest of the album is pretty great too. Wishing that V sounded more like Mania.

Truckfighters ROCK!
When Joshua Homme says a band is awesome you better check them out. If you're a fan of Stoner Rock and fuzzed up guitars then this is the band for you.

Bella edizione
Bella edizione di un gran bel disco stoner. Disco singolo pressato bene e silenzioso. Copertina stampata bene. Dentro non ci sono inserti con i testi o altro. Va bene così.

Einfach nur wunderbar
Hab das Album aufgrund der ganzen Positiven Rezensionen mal gekauft und kann es Fans von Stoner Rock und ähnlichem bedenkenlos weiterempfehlen. Es wird mit jedem Durchgang besser und momentan läuft die Platte das 3te Mal in Folge durch... komme kaum weg davon :)Zur Musik selber ist schon genug gesagt worden. Deswegen kurz zur Vinylausgabe:Klingt super, kann man nichts falsch machen. Das Album kommt schön auf einer Platte daher und wurde nicht, wie heute leider fast üblich, auf 2 LPs aufgeteilt. Einzige Mankos: Leider kein Picture Sleeve, kein Downloadcode und auch keine CD beigelegt.Kaufen und die Band unterstützen, wems nicht gefällt, kann man es ja weiterschenken!

zündet spät - aber dann richtig !
Truckfighters sind eine wahre Macht. Wer sie live gesehen hat,weiß, was für eine ungeheure Energie sie auf der Bühne entladen.Das ganze auf CD zu bannen, so dachte ich jedenfalls, könnte etwas schwierig werden.Tatsächlich war ich anfangs auch ein bisschen skeptisch, nach dem ersten Hördurchgang.Nach mehrmaligen hören aber, offenbart sich hier ein energiegeladener, gitarrenbreitwandsound !Wirklich geil was die Jungs hier abliefern. Vor allem das lange Stück "Majestic" weiß zu begeistern.Wer auf guten Stoner Sound steht, kann hier bedenkenlos zugreifen.Wenn Ihr die Chance habt, sie live zu sehen, schaut sie euch unbedingt an !!
