Trapper Keepers - Hairshirt

"Detroit's Hairshirt have arrived - by way of Eastern Europe - with a suitcase full of creative, experimental and indie rock songs that breathe new life into the genre. Benefiting from Sonic Youth's groundwork and Detroit's recent musical history, Hairshirt move beyond the basement of free-form noise and the crunch of the garage into an area of catchy, intensely beautiful songs that maintain a certain 80's post-punk edge."


Hairshirt was formed in 2002 by Amir Husak (vocals, guitar) and Jeremy Stork (drums). They disbanded in 2006. The band released a 5-track EP on Contraphonic Records and a split 7" with Ten Words for Snow on Boyarm Records. They also contributed songs to a few compilations, including "Xmas in Mesopotamia" for Suburban Sprawl Music's Christmas sampler.
