CMU Approved
Approved: Brutus
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 29 November 2016
Newly signed to Hassle Records, Brutus have announced that they will release their debut album, ‘Burst’, on 24 Feb. Pre-empting that, they’ve released new single ‘All Along’, a short sharp burst of genre-jumping heavy rock.
Speaking about the album, vocalist and drummer Stefanie Mannaerts says: “For this record, I had to dig deep into hidden and guarded emotions. It’s not so easy to sing about myself, so I used the third person. It’s also not easy to drum a blast-beat over a melodic vocal to capture some exact feelings”.
“‘All Along’ is for a loved one, a band, the friends around me that are actually able to stand me”, she adds. “It’s a ball of emotions, ready to burst with frustration and anger, but also with tons of energy, love, everything at once”.
The band will be over in the UK for shows in London, Brighton and Ramsgate in March and April next year.
