a record that always sounded ahead of its time as much as an historically accurate walk down memory lane, 'accelerator' is a truly remarkable sounding record. producer neil hegarty explains how its unique sound was created: "we played a record we liked through a spectrum analyzer and "captured" the eq shape and then applied that to the finished track. for example 'i'm ready' ran through the archie's 'sugar, sugar' filter and so on." but all of this production would be nothing without nine songs, each with pure exhilaration at its core; huge riffs, pounding drum tracks, choruses that everyone is compelled to sing along with, and even odes to steven seagal; brains and brawn all in one package.

Royal Trux - Accelerator (Reissue)

Review by Mark Powell

Accelerator’s savage vitality hasn’t diminished one iota in the intervening decade-and-a-half: quite what point it’s ultimately trying to make remains typically elusive, but you get the sense that it’s somehow been proved right in the long-run.»
