Trapt is coming up on their 17th anniversary as a band this August as TRAPT formed back in August of 1997. Wow, Thats a long time.
17th anniversary! Yeah, it's been a long ride and we all hope to continue for a long time to come.
im sure there has been many of ups and downs with the band with exiting members, & downfalls and ups for each member. How do you(Chris) & Pete overcome the problems/downfalls that you encounter during your 23 years in TRAPT? (I ask Chris & Pete being that they are the only 2 members that been there since day 1)
Things happen in phases and for a reason, at this point, we want the best sound possible for the people who come to listen to what we do. For the last couple years, things have been real good, people grow and sometimes grow apart. You can't help that, but one thing that will always stay constant is the sound that trapt has. It's just something that works when the pieces fit and right now they fit better than ever.
Back on May 29th 2014, TRAPT posted a Facebook status saying "Who's ready for some acoustic Trapt? Details coming soon..." What could we expect acoustically from Trapt?
Our first ever acoustic album "The Acoustic Collections" is done and will come out in a couple months. The songs sound so good acoustic, we are blown away with the acoustic representation of some of our best songs. Full studio versions with all instruments all unplugged. Sounds big yet smooth, everything I want to hear in an acoustic recording. The track listing will be posted on our Facebook page very soon.
We also seen a Facebook post stating "We Want YOU to be a part the making of our next album! Who's ready for the next chapter of TRAPT?! Big news coming soon!" What could we expect from the next chapter of TRAPT?
We will have a page on our trapt.com site called "The Listening Room" where our Indie Gogo "trapt backers" can help us decide what pieces of music they like, or what version of a song or mix they like better. We're really going to involve our fans in making this new album. Here is the link to be a part of it! http://igg.me/at/traptbackers
