NEW ALBUM THREATS/WORSHIP OUT NOW ON VICE RECORDS
Toronto’s Lullabye Arkestra, the husband and wife duo known for the stripped down, intense breed of pounding riff-heavy anthems present on their sophomore LP Threats/Worship have released the final installment of their 4-part cover video series.
Basing the series on covers of their favorite punk and metal influences, the band taped and released intimate renditions of these selections from The Cro-Mags, Kittens, George Gershwin, and today’s release short-but-sweet cover of Napalm Death’s “The Kill”. The videos provide a glimpse of Lullabye Arkestra’s ferocious live presence and a great introduction to their brand new album Threats/Worship – recognized on Pitchfork today as “pure grindhouse grit– ugly, brutal, yet thrilling as all hell” with a 7.5 rating.
