New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Metal mainstays, recording artists Butcher Babies today release their first new single in three years called "Bottom Of A Bottle" with celebratory new wine to accompany the release called Butcher Babies branded 'blood red' wine. Both commemorate their 10-year anniversary as a tour de force band.
The new song premiered on Loudwire and in lauding the song said, "'Bottom of a Bottle' showcases a more melodic side of the Butcher Babies, and is sure to attract both rock and metal fans alike."
"Bottom Of A Bottle" marks a musical evolution for this seasoned band. The new sound is a bit of a departure from the band's extreme metal history, taking their signature sound and building on it to create something entirely new for listeners.
Distorted guitars and driving drums still back the powerful vocal duo of
Heidi Shepherd and Carla Harvey, but the band has moved to a catchier and more melodic sound.
In talking about the new song, Carla tells Loudwire, "Haven't we all been at the bottom of the bottle at some point? Name a better way to commiserate about it than by writing an anthem that turns the heartache into a celebration. We are pumped to finally release some new tunes that showcase a different side of who we are, yet remain uniquely Butcher Babies."
Heidi continues, "This song is a product of the environment it was created in. At that moment, I was the guy at the end of the bar telling stories from yester-year. I've been there a time or two so the lyrics just flowed. This song holds a special place in my heart because of that exact moment. We've been sitting on this song for a long time so I can not wait for our fanbase to take the trip with us!"
In addition to the new song, Butcher Babies are celebrating 10 years as a band by releasing their own signature wine called "Butcher Burgundy".
Heidi says, "We are stoked and feel like pairing an AZ wine with a song we wrote in AZ fits perfectly with a song called "Bottom of a Bottle". Now we can all enjoy a Bottle together!" The new wine will be available for purchase on the Butcher Babies website.
The new single marks the first release from Butcher Babies forthcoming EP, which is set for release in mid-2021.
