BRUTUS

Anyone who follows the thriving heavy music scene of our southern neighbors will surely have had Brutus in their sights for some time. The star of this Belgian post-metal trio (with a singing drummer, or, if you will, a drumming singer) is rising considerably. Especially after their most recent (3rd) studio album “Unison Life” from 2022 was rightly acclaimed internationally: an album that, thanks in part to the band members’ diverse musical tastes (i.e., [math] metal, punk rock, post-hardcore/post-rock, electronic, and Americana/country), is ground breaking and opens up a musical landscape where hardcore, metal, post-rock, and shoegaze appear in a musical vat full of contradictions. Brutus is brutal.
