Media: Stream the Blood Brothers' "Young Machetes"

Posted by aubin on Thursday, September 21, 2006 at 4:50 PM (EDT)

The Blood Brothers have posted a full album stream of their upcoming album. Due out October 10th, the record is their fifth and is titled, Young Machetes.

The album is the follow up to 2004's Crimes and in the intervening time, members of the band also released Chandeliers in the Savannah and the Headlines single under the name Neon Blonde, as well as the eponymous EP from Head Wound City.

As reported earlier, the band recorded with producer Guy Picciotto, co-vocalist of legendary Washington D.C. band Fugazi, and producer of recent albums from The Gossip and Blonde Redhead. Sharing the production duties with Guy was John Goodmanson, a veteran producer responsible for records from a diverse range of acts from Death Cab for Cutie to Sleater-Kinney. Goodmanson also co-produced Crimes along with the band themselves.

You can check out the entire album right here.

The band will be supporting the album with a Fall tour alongside Texas-based band And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead.

I would rather listen to Pat Boone's "In a Metal Mood: No More Mr. Nice Guy"

How long did it take you to try to invent that new sub genre of music?

Someone (September 24, 2006)

not long at all. it just came to me. just like it came to every other band who claims they are post-something.

punkbytheounce (September 21, 2006)

I liked them better pre-Crimes, but only because this new stuff gets a little old after a while. It's good, just not AS good.

Someone (September 21, 2006)

It's pretty mellow. Burn Piano Island Burn was more hardcore.

TheOneTrueBill (September 21, 2006)

They obviously just wanted out of the "punk ghetto" like everyone else!

carstens (September 21, 2006)

Dude, they got out of the punk ghetto way before everyone else was doing it. Posers.

DiscoFucker (September 22, 2006)

I always do that when albums I am looking forward to get leaked.....some. I have actually had this album for like a month, but only listened to it a few times.....I guess I just like going to the record store and buying a new CD/record. It's a great feeling.

TheOneTrueBill (September 21, 2006)

In related news i'm listening to the Nation of Ulysses right now. Does anyone have the EP of demos or whatever that came out a long time after they broke up? Is it good?

Dennis Lyxzen probably has 40 copies of it. Ask him.

GreenVandal (September 21, 2006)

It's called The Embassy Tapes. I have never heard it but I have heard it is pretty good.

WainscottRockCity (September 22, 2006)

The Embassy tapes are extremely raw, energetic demos recorded mostly live in a basement/living room...and you can tell by the sound quality - shitty, but powerful. Guitar becomes squeaks and wails and a times Ian Svenonius sounds like a dying animal. It's quite amazing. The songs themselves are actually much more accessible than anything on "Plays Pretty", some dare I say even poppy? Basically, there are only six new songs, but its amazing.

Someone (September 21, 2006)

Duuude.........this is life changing.

Someone (September 21, 2006)

music is splitting into two seperate piles. One is the nu-emo-myspace pile and the other is the overly-pretentious-fake-white stripes/rapture pile. this falls in the latter.

I just laughed at how completely stupid this was. Way to lament the music scene like every other dumbass around here.

Someone (September 21, 2006)

Actually, he's pretty on point

thewolfmechanic (September 21, 2006)

time to start listening to more music eh pal?

GreenVandal (September 21, 2006)

This album is fucking great and the Blood Brothers are far more consistent than the Trail of Dead. I never saw what the big deal about Source Tags and Codes was. It certainly rocked...but not much else.

Annnnd here comes the part where someone says they are consistently shitty.

Someone (September 21, 2006)

laser life is the new peacock skeleton. meaning its good.

Someone (September 21, 2006)

alot dirtier and no wavey

Someone (September 21, 2006)

this album fucking rules.

Kursk (September 21, 2006)

I really like Laser Life and Spit Shine Your Black Clouds among a few others, but I feel they're getting a little too, I don't know maybe pretentious with this post everything music. This is coming from someone who loves all of their full length albums from This Adultery Is Ripe all the way through Crimes. I don't know if I'm going to get this album anymore...

Someone (September 21, 2006)

Everyone in college likes this band, I personally think they are no talent ass clowns.

Seriously, this is PunkNews.org, I wish it would live up to it's name.

As for all you cultural scensters out there, fuck off and stop acting like you own all 80's music.

Someone (September 22, 2006)

Laser Life is amazing. haven't heard anything else

Someone (September 22, 2006)

Someone (September 27, 2006)

everyone just shut up. the blood brothers are the only band to put out a good record in like 5 years. everything sounds the same these days and the blood brothers aren't giving in to all this emo/screamo crap. shut up and enjoy the music.
