Brick Layer Cake Concert History

Brick Layer Cake is the musical project of Todd Trainer. Trainer is a well known drummer for bands such as Rifle Sport, Breaking Circus and Shellac. For Brick Layer Cake, Trainer plays every instrument, and sings in a deep speech-like monotone. The music of Brick Layer Cake is characteristically very slow in tempo, to the point of being called "drone-like". As Steve Albini described it: 'Think of Nick Drake on downers fronting Black Sabbath, if Black Sabbath played only the good parts of their songs'.
