"Learning About Truce"

excerpt from voicesinthevalley.com
--------------------------------

“TRUCE has rocked the northwest music scene since 2003, gathering fans at an exponential rate with their overwhelming instrumentals and powerful lyrical expression. Whether they are questioning the world, examining the complexities of love or emoting personal struggle, it’s always been about the music.” (www.myspace.com/truce) They also have over 4000 myspace friends, keep a consistent calendar of shows, and have produced their own record.

That is just the beginning. TRUCE is a fabulously talented quintet with the ability to perform music that reaches out to you and draws you in as the guitar riffs are going out there and back again, and lyrics are connecting with everything you know or feel. With a solid sound “that asks questions…embraces faith and pushes it away…that loses all hope and then finds it again,” it leads you through tunnels and up mountains, all the while encouraging you to go deeper, experience more, question everything and befriend everyone; TRUCE creates a relevant meeting place for people within the music.

To make it even better, TRUCE has an exceptional stage presence. There is so much energy and intensity in their show that you can feel it pulsing from the front of the room to the back. There is no mistaking that these guys are passionate about what they are doing. It shows in their life, on and off the stage.

TRUCE’s lead singer Dennis Zender shares this bit about their music: “’I challenge [fans] to find their place, to ultimately be themselves. I want them to find a hope within chaos that is our obligation as human beings, and it is the most beautiful thing you can ever strive to be. I want meaning and hope to invade the best and worst moments of your life. I want you to fight the cosumeristic attitude that exists so vividly in our society today…we forget what truly lies inside all of us, a will to learn more and forge a path seldom taken...to be ourselves. These are songs that represent us, these words and ideas genuinely reflect where I am and where I want to be... [this band]…is an absolute dedication to the craft....’”

If that doesn’t tell you enough, TRUCE’s album A Hope Within Chaos might. You can purchase it online at CD Baby or iTunes. - Voices in the Valley

Bio

This band exists with a powerful shared vision: to create a sound that reflects the honesty and experience of youth. Music that asks questions. music that embraces faith and pushes it away. music that loses all hope and then finds it again. "i feel peace within my heart, i find patience in the overwhelming, that's nothing short of astounding, surrender to all you know. I lost where I was going, the path that I was forcing, i stand tall for more than a reason, a reason to be alone, a reason to carry on. I see hope in all directions, a golden intervention. an attitude or an action, strength through the stereo. I'm looking for a reaction, a longing or a passion, a meaning for us to be.

Zender: "I challenge our fans to think and react. Question that there is more to this life than just the money and social status that surrounds us. I challenge them to find their place, to ultimately be themselves. I want them to find a hope within chaos that is our obligation as human beings, and it is the most beautiful thing you can ever strive to be. I want meaning and hope to invade the best and worst moments of your life. I want you to fight the cosumeristic attitude that exsits so vivdly in our society today. Its not about biting off more than we can chew, its about taking care of one another. This nation's youth has a voice. Is living really just all about buying the next fastest and most expensive car, or the newest technoligical breakthrough? In a world of follow the economically and culturely successful leader, we forget what truely lies inside all of us, a will to learn more and forge a path seldom taken..to be ourselves. These are songs that represent us, these words and ideas genuinely reflect where I am and where i want to be...[this band].. is an absolute dedication to the craft... being in TRUCE and seeing our fans pour out their love and support is one of the most humbling things we could have ever imagined, cause it's an attitude that reveals itself in action, an unselfish service to others, it's the greatest of all human qualities."
