Brutus - Behind The Mountains

BRUTUS are a Scandinavian quintet – part Swede, part Norwegian – who subscribe to the Witchcraft school of throwback hard rock. Meaning that their brand of psychedelic hard rock is 100% ProTools-free, groovy, butterfingered and is guaranteed to make you flush down the toilets all those so-called ‘modern’ bands, grow your beard and listen only to Blue Cheer, Black Sabbath, Pentagram and Grand Funk Railroad – as if it was the 70’s all over again! Two years ago, BRUTUS‘ self-titled debut album was already a good kick in the nuts. And the band’s first full-length for Svart Records ‘Behind The Mountains’ is exactly what the doctor ordered. No gimmicks, no tricks but just nine tracks (including the butt-shaking “Big Fat Boogie”) of pure, bluesy and soulful music that comes straight from the heart of those retro-rockers, enhanced by Maarten Donders mind-bending artwork Style: Hard Rock
