Snooper was thinking about pressure. Blair Tramel and Connor Cummins — co-masterminds of Snooper — had become fascinated by hydraulic press YouTube videos, watching object after object spin and contort before getting flattened. Their heads, too, spun from everything that had gone on during Snooper’s early years. Tramel could relate to the videos, but for the poignance of a difficult transformation, not the defeat of total compression. “There’s a sweet spot,” she says. “For a moment, push and pull create this beautiful dance.”Over the past few years, Snooper has rocketed from Nashville DIY scene stalwarts to widespread adoration in the international underground music scene. The project evolved well beyond anything Tramel and Cummins had originally imagined, and faster than they could track — resulting in disorientation as much as exhilaration. Tramel and Cummins channeled all that energy into writing new material. Their new album, Worldwide, extends directly from the festering punk the band first made their name on, but documents Snooper becoming bolder, catchier, and more confident.
