The Blood Brothers
Young Machetes
V2

After a brief stint in the land of side-projects (Neon Blonde and Head Wound City), Brothers Blood have reunited and put their musical differences aside. Picking up where the brilliant Crimes left off, Young Machetes finds the band abrasive as ever, but without neglecting its penchant for grandiose theatrics. Still employing vaguely psychedelic Middle Eastern guitar parts with the thunder of modern hardcore, the Brothers continue to find innovative ways of expanding its already unique sound. í¢â‚¬Å“Lazer Lifeí¢â‚¬ sounds like the cast of Fraggle Rock fronting The Doors while í¢â‚¬Å“1,2,3,4 Guitarsí¢â‚¬ hints at the bandsí¢â‚¬â„¢ new affection for Krautrock. It doesní¢â‚¬â„¢t get much better than this, kids.
