Hound Gawd! Records<\/a>\u00a0recently announced the new album by\u00a0The Cutthroat Brothers<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Mike Watt<\/a>. Titled \u2018The King is Dead\u2019, the album will be available as vinyl LP on Record Store Day, June 12th, 2021, followed by a digital release on July 9th. The venomous blues-punk, swamp-rock sounds of\u00a0The Cutthroat Brothers\u00a0and\u00a0Mike Watt\u00a0conjure bands like The Gun Club, The Cramps, The Stooges and The Hives. You can check out a new single called “Wrong” now and download\/stream the album for review below…<\/div>\n

No Echo\u00a0says “Basically, if you love bands like The Cramps and X, you’ll be an instant fan of what these fellas are cooking up.” adding, “Mr. Watt’s mind-fucking bass lines colors the material in a beautiful way that makes you go, “Yeah, this is sick.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This collaboration began when\u00a0Mike Watt\u00a0interviewed Jason and Donny on The Watt from Pedro Show. When the real-life barbers casually asked Watt to play bass on their next album, they didn\u2019t expect to hear \u2018yes\u2019.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Mike Watt\u00a0added his magic and is now an honorary\u00a0Cutthroat Brother\u00a0barber by blood.\u00a0Watt\u2019s\u00a0gritty, powerful playing will blow your greasy black pompadour back like a jet engine.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Hailed as \u2018the Sweeney Todd\u2019s of punk\u2019,\u00a0The Cutthroat Brothers\u00a0and\u00a0Mike Watt\u00a0are a mean and murderous match made in hell.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
World-renowned visual artist\u00a0Raymond Pettibon\u00a0(Black Flag, Sonic Youth) contributed the cover art, making \u2018The King is Dead\u2019 packaging hotter than a wet shave and twice as slick.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Take this blood-soaked bash-a-thon and file it where it fits: right next to punk rock greats like Misfits or The Damned.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Jack Endino (Nirvana, Soundgarden, Mudhoney) produces, mixes, and masters again (his 4th collaboration with\u00a0The Cutthroat Brothers\u00a0in only 2 plus years since the band was formed), honing \u2018The King is Dead\u2019 to a razor sharp point.<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\u2018The King Is Dead\u2019 opens with the aforementioned \u2018Killing Time\u2019, an anthem for miscreants everywhere. Up next is the rockabilly and drug influenced \u2018Medicine,’ finding\u00a0Mike Watt\u00a0in a fuzzed up bounce reminiscent of The Minutemen\u2019s \u2018Corona\u2019.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The third and title track \u2018The King is Dead\u2019 is a spooky blues burner that slips into the room like a night stalker, then slashes everything into a brash, bluesy bloodbath. The rest of the album pummels forward in the gritty, grimy, grinning fashion that leaves the listener sliced, shaking and twisting on the barbershop floor wanting more.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The\u00a0Brothers\u00a0and\u00a0Watt\u00a0enjoyed working together so much that you can expect further collaborations in the future!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
