HOTEL WRECKING CITY TRADERS (Melbourne, Australia):

‘If Thor was the hero in an apocalyptic action movie, Hotel Wrecking City Traders would be his entrance music’

Ash Easton (Blunt Magazine, Australia)

Adam Wright-Carmean (Crucial Blast Records, USA)

‘Continents collide! Oz's Hotel Wrecking City Traders and Gary Arce of Californian desert legends Yawning Man reach across the Pacific to combine noise rock crunch with psych guitar bliss.’

H.P Taskmaster (The Obelisk, USA)

Hotel Wrecking City Traders (HWCT) have been dislodging earwax, busting strings and sticks and blowing minds since 2007. HWCT are an instrumental noise rock duo with a heavy focus on improvisation and a love of loud volume and the psychedelic. Their sound is ever-evolving and expansive, breaking down genre’s and throwing them in a melting pot with hypnotic results.

Ben Wrecker was also personally invited by Winnebago Deal (UK) to play drums in the band on their debut tour of Australia in 2008. In 2010, the band released a collaborative LP with Desert Rock Forefather Gary Arce (Yawning Man, Dark Tooth Encounter, Sort of Quartet) on Bro Fidelity Records (Australia) // Cobraside Distribution (USA).An offer from Gary that eventuated from HWCT supporting Ten East on tour in Australia in 2009. Ben Wrecker was also personally invited to play drums by Nick Oliveri (Kyuss, Queens of the Stone Age) in his Mondo Generator project in 2010 for a US tour w/ Aussie's Violent Soho and Tweak Bird (USA).

HWCT have played shows in support of: Saint Vitus (USA), Russian Circles (USA), Eagle Twin (USA), Thrones (USA), Ten East (USA), Earthless (USA), Om (USA), Black Cobra (USA), Monarch (France), Karma to Burn (USA), Grey Daturas (Aust), Winnebago Deal (UK), The Hard-Ons (Aust) and many more…

In November, 2012, then band toured Japan for the first time, taking in 8 dates across the country with Aussie's Spider Goat Canyon and a split album 'Japan Tour Split' - was released in honor of the tour on Bro Fidelity Records.
