Fresh Fries with Brandy and the Butcher

Let's check back in with Brandy and the Butcher. For the life of me, I'm still not 100% sure I know what they are. 

It's seeming like it might time to check out that album of theirs again. 

I know I reviewed it a few weeks back. It's something....that's for true.

Well, I took a moment to revisit the album, and I can tell you that's still a little difficult to articulate in a concise fashion, but I'll tell you that I did go ahead and preorder it on vinyl.

Dude....$18 shipped...Go to BANDCAMP NOW!

1. Let's not pretend. Fast food is delicious. What is your favorite fast food joint? 

I've always had a soft spot for Popeye's. 

Their spicy fried chicken sandwich is BADASS and I'm always down for a fried shrimp snack with cocktail sauce. 

Who Are You with Brandy and the Butcher

I've really been digging on Brandy and the Butcher lately. I need to get myself over to BANDCAMP to purchase their new record.

Tell me what do you think of it?

In the mean time, here's what they have to say about things.

Review Round Up 7/10/20

On a personal note, it's been really hard to maintain my standard content output and I'm sorry. I have figured out how I can get back to at least getting some reviews out there.

For the moment, I'm sticking with the round up style of reviews.

King Gorm by King Gorm (7/31/20)

So, this was a band I'd been seeing things about on Twitter. With my situation being what it is, I've not kept up on my emails. With that said, their style was still unknown to me. So, when pressing play for the firs time, it's hard to precisely describe the music I'm hearing.

Without going into all of the costumes, mythology, and origin of the name, let's just talk about this music. Vocally, there's a bit of Ghost in there, along with some Ghost-ish, instrumentation. Keyboards and such.

But musically, it's far closer to Iron Maiden on the metal spectrum. This band sounds like what I what hear in my head when I see Ghost.

BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE!

1. How are things going where you are? 

Slowly opening back up now- bars are reopening but not for live music yet. 

We aren't planning to play until September we tentatively have some shows with Emily and the Blackouts and Voodoo Glow Skulls.  

2. How long have you been sheltering in place at this time?
