Frontier Trust weren't the only Nebraska natives on the Omaha-based Caulfield Records, but so far as I can tell they were the lone non-emo band on the roster. I have however seen some "Americana" accusations leveled at this quartet, but Frontier Trust's chunky riffs strike me as a little too muscular to slot them into that genre alone. I wouldn't be surprised if I was the only one to make this observation, but the gentleman on the mic,
Gary Dean Davis is pretty much a dead-ringer for Eleventh Dream Day's Rick Rizzo. In fact, the untitled lead-off track could have been plucked straight from EDD's
Beet album. I don't know the year of this record's release, but it preceded a full length,
Speed Nebraska that's ripe for the picking
here.
A1. Untitled
A2. Swimming Hole

Frontier Trust were pretty awesome. Mercy Rule was another excellent (non-emo) band on Caulfield
