In anger and fear an sadness and doubt. Slightest of Treason does not so much as harness this energy as unleash it.” - Various Small Flames “Purely electric with an intense Vigor”  - Medium "Boston's Eldridge Rodriguez Make Rock You Actually Want to Listen To" - Bullett Magazine Atrophy is the fifth full length release from the band Eldridge Rodriguez.  The album demonstrates the bands wide range, veering away from the electro-rock and poli-power pop of their last two releases, The Castrati Menace and Slightest of Treason, in favor of a slacker indie feel while still incorporating the noise pop that the band has leaned on for over a decade. The themes on the tracks are more personal this time around focusing on love, loss and the burden of memory. In many ways it’s lighter than previous albums. The band is having a bit more fun while still presenting a brooding exterior. In late February 2020 Midriff Records put out the 8th release by Eldridge Rodriguez titled "Slightest of Treason", an album inspired in part by the shift toward conservative dogma in US politics. The band planned supporting the release with live shows starting with their record release party at Great Scott in Boston in mid/late March. By mid March the live music scene was dead, most media outlets were stymied, clubs were shuttered, radio was figuring out how to broadcast remotely and "Slightest of Treason" was lost in the chaos and shuffle created by the initial months of the pandemic. With an abundance of time on their hands the band went back into Bluetone Studios (owned and operated by David Grabowski) and started to safely work on the "Slightest of Treason" follow up. The product of which was 25 plus new tracks  many of which wound up on “Atrophy”. It’s a more relaxed, contemplative sound accompanied by lyrics that reflect the past few years. “Have I Gone Too Far” may be the best example and captures the day to day isolation, monotony and depression that went along with quarantining during the hight of the pandemic. Like previous releases, Atrophy was recorded at Bluetone Studios in Somerville Ma which is owned and operated by David Grabowski and released on Clayton and Cameron Keiber’s Midriff Records label. The track “Scars in the Vein” features vocals from indie rock legend Thalia Zedek (Come, Live Skull, Uzi).  Atrophy will initially be released digitally and on CD and include 12 songs, with a deluxe LP  coming soon. Cameron - guitar, keys, vocals David - bass, keys Clayton - guitar Dennis - drums, percussion Bridget Nault - accordion on "A Feeling That Won't Go Away" Erica Mantone - additional vocals on "A Feeling That Won't Go Away" Recorded and mixed by the band at Bluetone Studio, Somerville MA.
