Those who do have, know that Le Butcherettes is one of the most insane, unrestrained and ultimately ground-breaking bands of the 21st century, and its head (vocalist and lead guitarist) Teri Gender Bender is a visionary in the punk-rock genre who has collaborated with some of the greatest names in rock, such as Iggy Pop and John Frusciante.
For the bands newest release bi/MENTAL they teamed up with legendary producer Jerry Harrison of Talking Heads and Modern Lovers fame. The final result is 13 innovative, infectious, and artistic rock songs that capture the passion and energy of Le Butcherettes live show while in a way that sounds both refreshing and modern
"Essentially, this record was inspired by the death of a living mother but none of that matters anymore. A disconnection in itself is so ravage so confusing it leaves one feeling incomplete...is there hope? Is there light? Maybe it all isn't so black and white. In the end there is a duality in all. Life is a cycle, the moon, the sun, the ocean waves transcending into sand. It will be okay," Teri Gender Bender says.
