The TURPENTINE BROTHERS are back with their second - self-titled
full length album. We´re delighted to have´em and to go
through some massive pressing plant and printer payola to ensure that
the album hits the streets right for their European Tour starting in
February 6th, 2008. The TURPENTINE BROTHERS set-up is guitar, organ
and drums, in persons Justin Hubbard, Tara McManus (MR. AIRPLAIN MAN)
and Zack Brines (KINGS OF NUTHIN).
After playing quite a lot of shows in the east coast axis
it´s a long awaited treatment to witness them over here. Besides their influences they absorbing the Memphis/Montreal sound a lot and would do great on a trip with REIGNING SOUND and LES SEXAREENOS (the ´brothers would definitely be the noise makers in that tour bus). They got hit-and-run smashers with buzzing guitars and shout-out-loud vocals where glass get smashed and in general have that pushing, pulsating beat, urging you to move. On their alter ego, they succeed in writing slower paced songs, the organ is drawing blood, songs aka "Like a Dead Man" which are bursting of suppressed evil forces and let you creep in anonymous fear on a dirty trail with razorblades under you skin! Music wise, any obscure REATARDS or organ-driven MURDER CITY DEVILS come to mind. The Boston trio is a no bullshit no hype no compromise garage rock band with gospel, blues and soul influences standing on the right in the battle of truth vs fiction. Our #1 in the lately reborn and nationwide proclaimed ALIEN SNATCH! crusade vs.any kind of indie rock, especially from the UK. The album has 9 songs running on 45 rpm, giving you the perfect drug abuse rise and fall deal. We´re glad to add two songs originally supposed to be on 7" by SHIT SANDWICH since the baby couldn´t be initiated in time, thanks for that Norah! Lately, The TURPENTINE BROTHERS had a split 7" with COCOCOMA in SARAH MASON and will have another 7" coming out soon on RED LOUNGE. So finally we´re wondering about the fact that we continue to tie "two boys - one girl" bands to the label. (JEWWS, GHETTO WAYS, REAL LOSERS, HEX DISPENSERS) This formula seems the most explosive to us! The TURPENTINE BROTHERS are here to detonate false smiles, sweep off feet and roll on!
