hey friends
It seems like Robert didn't announce it yet but Baton Rouge's Totem is out now ! We're STOOOOOKED, they look so great !
So, it is our new full length which is out now ! We're uploading the whole thing on bandcamp right now, check it out here http://batonrougeband.bandcamp.com
it's our new full length and it's made of 9 new songs written between 2011 and 2013, mostly in our beloved practice place at Grrrn Zero in Lyon before it was shut down... Totem was a hard record to make.... 2 years of writing, arranging, droping, reworking material were finally worth it ! We took time to develop hypnotic athmospheres but didn't forget to go straight to the point with more melodic tracks as well .
It's been recorded and mixed in Villeurbanne at Mikrokosm Studio, close to the Totem subway station, by Benoit Bel in february 2014... then mastered by Harris Newman at Grey Market Mastering in Montreal Canada (Goodspeed You Black Emperor, A Silver Mount Zion etc.).
