BAPTISTS: Debut LP Out Now Via Southern Lord Full Album Streaming

Bushcraft, the debut LP from Vancouver’s most explosive band, BAPTISTS, is out now worldwide via Southern Lord. While the band’s initial 7” immediately turned heads scene-wide, Bushcraft is ripping them right off. Recorded with Kurt Ballou at his Godcity Studio, the album showcases the band’s creed of destruction through a blistering hybrid of punk-fueled hardcore propelled by white-knuckled snare-blasts, d-beat thunder, dissonant riff urgency and an overall relentless by-the-throat approach.

Amidst a landslide of commendations from countless mags and webzines, today Canadian national music outlet Exclaim! Magazine is streaming all of BAPTISTS’ seething Bushcraft for all to experience. Check it out HERE.

In addition to their hometown record release show February 28th, BAPTISTS are locking new gigs on their way to storm through SXSW 2013. Stay tuned for an arsenal of new dates to be announced in the coming days.

BAPTISTS Hurl Incendiary New Track

Vancouver, British Columbia-based BAPTISTS is preparing for the public onslaught of their debut LP Bushcraft, set for release in North America on February 19th via Southern Lord. Today the outfit hurls the album’s combustible second track “Think Tank Breed” onto the unsuspecting public. The high-paced snare drum attack ripping the track wide open at the first second of this brutalizing anthem sets the listener up for what unhinged and pummeling riffage they’re in store for on Bushcraft.

BAPTISTS: Vancouver Hardcore Unit’s Southern Lord Debut LP Confirmed

Vancouver quartet BAPTISTS will set loose its debut LP Bushcraft this February via Southern Lord.

BAPTISTS advocate a creed of destruction through a blistering, discordant hybrid of punk-fueled hardcore. Immediately following its 2010 formation, the sect took to the road and built a strong buzz in the underground scene with ferocious live shows, as Southern Lord unleashed the self-titled 7” in 2011, which sold out instantly. Having laid to waste several The Power Of The Riff events and a plethora of high-profile shows in Canada over the past few years,BAPTISTS have spent a good portion of 2012 vigilantly writing material for an anticipated LP release.

For the recording, BAPTISTS traveled to Salem, Massachusetts to record at the infamous Godcity studios with Kurt Ballou, who captured the eleven anthems embodied on Bushcraft. With nearly a half hour of unhinged lyrical angst and a seething vocal delivery propelled by white-knuckled snare-blasts, d-beat thunder, dissonant riff urgency and an overall relentless by-the-throat approach, Bushcraft is a release not to be ignored.

Bushcraft will drop in North America on February 19th, with BAPTISTS live/tour actions being devised in support of the release. Stay tuned as more details emerge.
