Biography

The Trouble We’re In, the debut full length from Milwaukee’s Call Me Lightning, blends spastic guitars with driving no wave rhythms. Call Me Lightning’s sound brings together the more frantic moments of THE TALIKING HEADS’ early days with the freak-out riffs and wild vocal style of THE JESUS LIZARD. Throw in some lyric styling reminiscent of THE MINUTEMEN and you have a powerful combination.

The three members (Nathan, Bill and Shane) of Call Me Lightning have been friends for nearly ten years. Having cut their teeth in the Milwaukee punk/hardcore scene (ex members of: Hero Of A Hundred Fights, Akarso, Managra and Haymarket Riot), the friends decided it was time to start something together. The result is Call Me Lightning’s debut full length, The Trouble We’re In.

The Trouble We’re In is thematically rooted in fantasy, revenge and paranoia. Lots of Paranoia. Call me Lightning have channeled alcoholic dementia in to 10 songs that are intense yet refreshing. The Trouble We’re in manages to be dark without being brooding. Hell’ it’s almost fun.
