"Bridge Club Release The Scorched Capsule"

Bridge Club comes into its own on its second full-length recording, "The Scorched Capsule." Recorded at the recently reactivated Pachyderm Studio in Cannon Falls, Minn., the disc admirably captures the power trio's juiced-up, low-down live show. "On the Take" is part Mudhoney, Blue Cheer and Ted Nugent, and "Graveyard Wop" sounds like a Jack White demo. But it's not all wicked muscle-rock, either, as frontman Joe Werner shows himself a haunting balladeer on "Lonely Ghost" and especially "Picture Show."

"Nice Boys"

...their words serve as symbols, a series of pop-culture ciphers waiting to be decoded...their songs seem designed to deconstruct language into a rush of sound.

"Grand Old Day, Dixie's Stage, Har Mar Superstar, The Hold Steady & Bridge CLub"

When we arrived, Bridge Club was hard at work on the Dixies Stage. And they were L-O-U-D. I am downright proud of what these boys are doing lately, bringing the proverbial “rawk” in the spirit of Zeppelin and Iggy while not forgetting that people sometimes like to sing along.

Bio

Formed in November of 2002,
Bridge Club started playing out as a four-piece, but it wasn’t until June of the next year (when they ousted their lead singer) that all the pieces started to fall into place. This line up would showcase the songwriting abilities, playing prowess, and big-time rock swagger these fuzzed-out, garage rockers have. In August of 2003 the Commander Mandible e.p. was released and the band found success not only in recording but on the stage. Their live sets proved to be tight, mean, and blistering renderings of the songs.

Bridge Club began to find critical success and gained a vehemently loyal crowd. In October of 2004 they dropped their debut full length, Summer of the Jackal. The shows got bigger and they found significant air play on college radio. They rode this energy into shows with The Libertines, Metric, The Hold Steady and Har Mar Superstar.

The band continued their reputation for intense live shows and explosive playing. With the 2006 release of The Scorched Capsule, Bridge Club have created a group of songs that work together as an album. Experimenting with different styles of structuring, they have created a new style while still staying true to their rock roots. The Scorched Capsule shows a broader dynamic between sounds and a definite evolution in the band.
