Epic and opulent from the get go, Trash Tones deliver a seismic scale loaded with an emotional verve on the majestic “Taking Time”. This four piece French alternative rock outfit bring out the key tenants of the heaviness that post-grunge in the early 00s was so renowned for. But within it, they’re also able to deliver such scintillating guitar driven melodies and powerful vocal layering over it to create a kind of scale and luxury to the overall arrangement that makes this song sound like something that would break stadiums if performed live. The chorus “here we go again”ʼ in particular is an absolute show stealer moment.
This is modern rock that we need.
