Brutal Truth - Prepare To Enter The Studio

As posted on the Brutal Truth website, "Evolution Through Revolution" is the working title for the new Brutal Truth record. The band adds: "We have been writing / grinding the songs live for the last year and are set to record in the fall. New to the writing and recording is guitarist Erik Burke of Sulaco, Kalibas, and countless other Rochester, NY based metal/grind projects. For those who have followed Dan's endeavors, he also plays in Nuclear Assault. So with a new guitar player, the obvious question is... what's it sound like? We have some tracks on the relapse compilation "This Comp Kills Fascists", that could give you a little idea, however, the material for the record is a bit more involved. All the complexities that make Brutal Truth a head fuck are there - an endless bizarre mix of styles and tempos that will entertain even the most experimental grind nerd... so yes, very excited to smash and record. We have a little over thirty minutes written, and of course there will be odds and ends released here and there... either keep in touch here or the brutalfuckintruth.myspace page."

And drummer Rich Hoak announced the following on that brutalfuckintruth.myspace page: "I've been in the basement playing drums for 15-17 hours a day for the last 10 weeks: On October 6, Brutal Truth will begin recording at Watchmen Studios. We've have 24 new songs to choose from: "Grind Fidelity", "Evolution Through Revolution" and "Detached" are a few song titles."

Brutal Truth - Begin Work On New Material

According to a press release of Relapse Records, the guys of reunited seminal grindcore / extreme metal outfit Brutal Truth have begun writing for a new full-length album. The troupe has crafted six brand new songs so far, each one faster and more brutal than the one before it.

Brutal Truth's Danny Lilker elaborates: ""We have 6 new songs in varying stages of evolution that are shaping up to be some of the most intense shit we've ever written. After 8 years it feels damn good to write some really psychotic grind, and we've jumped right into the deep end of the pool. Stylistically it seems to pick up where Sounds of the Animal Kingdom left off with the main difference being we're also incorporating some of the old school type riffing from Extreme Conditions Demand Extreme Responses but at a much faster tempo. We'll keep you posted as things develop!"

Brutal Truth drummer Rich Hoak adds: ""Help, I just can't stop playing faster and faster and faster and faster!!! My arms are gonna fall off of my body!! Totally psyched for total fucking grind!!!"

Brutal Truth - Announce Reunion Show In Chicago

Influential extreme metallers Brutal Truth have scheduled a reunion show on September 3 at the Double Door in Chicago, IL as part of the second annual Electric City Rockfest. Also appearing on the bill are Pig Destroyer. More information is available at www.doubledoor.com.

With regards to how the reunion came about, Brutal Truth bassist Danny Lilker (also of Nuclear Assault and Anthrax fame) recently wrote in his regular column in the U.K.'s Zero Tolerance magazine, "A couple of members of the classic New Orleans sludgecore band EyeHateGod lost everything they owned as well as their homes in the hurricane. The band has reached out to the scene and asked if there was any way that some bands could cover EHG songs for a benefit album to help these guys get back on their feet again. They also made a special request to see if there was any way in hell that Brutal Truth, who've been disbanded since 1998, could somehow reunite to contribute a song, since that would certainly provoke some extra interest in the album.

"So, for a damn good reason, Brutal Truth has recorded a version of the EHG song 'Sister Fucker'. The original song appears on the 'Take As Needed For Pain' album and is split into two parts, which we recorded as one long song. It was just a matter of Gurn and Rich coming up here to Rochester where our friends in Sulaco graciously consented to letting us borrow their jam room for the purpose of learning, rehearsing and recording the song. A friend of Rich's came up with him and recorded it, it was then sent to Kevin out in Chicago where he tracked his vocals and mixed it, and it will soon appear on the album that will be released on Emetic Records. And in case you're wondering, yes, it's faster than the original!

"Now, I suppose by now some of you might be saying, 'Well? Is that it? You guys planning any shows?' Well, since we all live in different cities now, and we went to the trouble to get together to learn a fairly easy song, we kinda shrugged and said 'Let's see if we can play any of our shit!' Weed was smoked. And it appears that we still have that chemistry that made us what we were, so although there are no confirmed shows at the moment , I will say that it is certainly in the realm of possibility that there will be at least one live show, and what happens then remains to be seen."
