BRUTAL TRUTH To Grind Through Brooklyn And Philly This Month; Europe… You’re Next

Friday, March 8th, 2013

The blazed henchmen of grindcore, BRUTAL TRUTH, will storm through the Northeast US with two shows next week, and have confirmed the crashing of a round of European metalfests.

Next Saturday, March 16th, BRUTAL TRUTH will raid Brooklyn to pummel Saint Vitus bar with support from Total Fucking Destruction [double Hoak duty!], Psychic Limb and Hivesmasher, on the way to the Philthadelphia Infest in Philly the next night with Master, Malignancy, Embalmer, Phobia, Cannabis Corpse and labelmates Devourment among a rash of others.

This Spring and Summer BRUTAL TRUTH will raid European audiences several times, confirmed to hit Stockholm, Sweden on April 18th, followed by their participation on Close-Up Magazine’s Båten cruise with Entombed, F.K.Ü., Scar Symmetry, Grave and others over the following days. July will take the bastards back to Europe once again to slaughter crowds at Metal Days Festival in Slovenia and Stonehenge Fest in Holland.

BRUTAL TRUTH assaulted the masses with the monstrous End Time LP in September 2011, the band’s patented sonic abuse as always fueled by swarms of blastbeats, distortion, feedback and bong-sedated rage, its’ chambers loaded with nearly an hour of faceblasting anarchy. Recorded with Doug White at Watchman Studios in Lockport, New York, End Time showcases BRUTAL TRUTH continuing to reign as one of grindcore’s most influential acts.

Stream End Time in its hateful/hazy entirety at the horde’s official Bandcamp.

BRUTAL TRUTH Premiere New Video; Confirm Tour With Nasum & Dropdead

Wednesday, February 29th, 2012

Grindcore subjugators BRUTAL TRUTH today unveil their brand new epilepsy-inducing society-hating politically-charged video for “Malice/Fuck Cancer,” the latest in an ongoing bombardment of videos coinciding with their latest LP End Time. This latest action-packed double-header was completed by Tyson Montrucchio who previously also directed BRUTAL TRUTH’s videos for “Sugar Daddy,” “Semi Automatic Carnation” and “Get a Therapist…Spare The World,” in addition to working with Cattle Decapitation, Downspell and others.

So without further ado, just in time for your drunken Leap Year Hump Day festivities, MetalSucks is proud to give you “Malice/Fuck Cancer” AT THIS LOCATION.

This week BRUTAL TRUTH are crossing the southern border of our country to assault Mexico City at Eyescream Metalfest IV, set as one of the main headliners alongside Tankard, Voivod and more.

Additionally the NY-state grinders have confirmed their participation on the upcoming American tour for the almighty Swedish grind unit Nasum. This very special final Nasum tour was booked in tribute to the band’s late vocalist Mieszko Talarczyk, who tragically died in the devastating 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. With Nasum bringing BRUTAL TRUTH as well as politi-crust icons Dropdead along as support, there is no doubt that this will be one of the most destructive and pertinent extreme tours of the year.

BRUTAL TRUTH Premiere “Lottery” Video Via Metal Injection…. Everybody Wins!

Monday, January 9th, 2012

The devout militia in-house at Metal Injection today premieres the brand new video from New York grindcore mercenaries BRUTAL TRUTH. The epilepsy-inducing new visual assault was filmed for the track “Lottery,” the tenth track from the crew’s latest LP, End Time.

“Lottery” is the first video from End Time to hit the streets since the album was released in September, and was directed by David Hall of Handshake Inc. Stated Hall of the creation of the video and working with BRUTAL TRUTH on it: I think Kevin Sharp is a seriously underrated lyricist and therefore wanted to make the actual words of the song a part of the video. If you play the video at half speed you’ll be able to read the words and a get a sense of what is going on thematically. Visually, I wanted to recreate a visual memory of what it’s like to watch a Brutal Truth show…’still not loud enough, still not fast enough’ – a blur of sounds and visions ground through your face, four unique and seriously talented players that form a grind-Voltron; a big noisy beast that spits super-acid in your face and defeats complacency and boredom.”

No purchase is necessary to enter this “Lottery” — check it out RIGHT HERE.

BRUTAL TRUTH also filmed two additional new videos to coincide with End Time — videos crafted for the tracks “Fuck Cancer” and “Malice” — once again with Tyson Montrucchio, who previously directed the band’s videos for “Sugar Daddy” and “Get A Therapist… Spare the World.” Stay tuned for more info as these new waves of band propaganda are disbursed in the coming weeks.
