This, the second and a half album by They Trudy (established 1979), is a collection of some of the songs we started recording in November 2007 and finished at some point in 2014.

Reviews:

The Trudy have been around since 1979 when they evolved out of influential post-punkers Cardiacs. ……. Decidedly unfashionable, but easily among the most

Reviews:

The Trudy have been around since 1979 when they evolved out of influential post-punkers Cardiacs. ……. Decidedly unfashionable, but easily among the most invigorating bands operating today. (Hi-Fi News & Record Review)

Spurred on by Heathcote’s agelessly cool vocals, it’s a convincingly sprightly return to the fray further enhanced by a contemporary polish from high profile producers Greg Walsh (Kate Bush, Tina Turner) and Peter Walsh (Pulp, Scott Walker). (Record Collector)

Got to say that after a long wait for the album, it's excellent. There's not a single "filler" or disappointing track. This could well be The Trudy's very own masterpiece. Listen once and you can't help putting it on repeat. (Independent & Unsigned Show, 6 Towns Radio)

"Always Never Beautiful Forever" is a top pop album and it is an album, not a collection of singles, but there are no duffers and no fillers. Now, spin this shit. (Unpeeled)

The band have been going since the early 1980’s and there are hooks and influences from each decade of their existence here resulting in a pretty damn near perfect pop song. (Records I Like – review for Rocket Heart single)

This single adds yet another instant pop classic to The Trudy’s already swelling account of er…instant pop classics. (Masterdog Sings The Browns - review for Bucolics Anonymous single)

With ‘Bucolics Anonymous’ The Trudy have produced something worth getting excited about. (Whisperin’ and Hollerin’ – review for Bucolics Anonymous single)

We’ll never tire of telling you The Trudy are the best pop pushing machine since Squeeze (Unpeeled – review for Bucolics Anonymous single)

‘Bucolics Anonymous’ is the second single to be taken from the band’s forthcoming new album and embodies the happy-go-lucky and feel good charms of pop that this band do so well. (Is This Music? – review for Bucolics Anonymous single)

A lovely exercise in indie guitar rock, with some classic vocals courtesy of Melissa Jo Heathcote, and a nice line in clever witty lyrics (Whisperin’ and Hollerin’ – review for Dirt Cheap Melody single)0

Genuinely classy and timeless pop and should be top ten in any civilised nation (Unpeeled – review for Dirt Cheap Melody single)

“Dirt Cheap Melody” is bold and bright and breezy pop music with the lid blown off and a fat rainbow bursting out. If it doesn’t stick in your head, you’ll need to get yourself to a hospital and ask them to check your skull for holes. You’ve probably got a leak somewhere.
