Schoolboy’s Death Trio - We’re All The Same
ALBUM RELEASED 8TH APRIL 2016
12” / CD / DOWNLOAD (ANTIPOP RECORDS)
“Heavy rhythms, dirty fuzz bass, and a front man simultaneously pushing ferocious saxophone and punk poetry.”
Born in the depths of Bristol’s underground scene Schoolboy’s Death Trio bring a message of reaffirmation, sometimes spiritual, often political and always existential. Their music is a distillation of heavy rhythms and dirty fuzz bass, upon which The Schoolboy applies his ferocious saxophone blast. Think The Last Poets raging at the top of Cypress Hill with more than a touch of Sun Ra.
[Don’t panic – no children were harmed in the making of this band!] The Schoolboy is a saxophonist and rhyme-slinger with some forthright ideas. Together with his band the Death Trio (a Memento Mori) they form a militant unit of freedom loving, pUnk-JazZ-pOeTRy pushers.
The debut album is the result of a hugely successful crowdfunding project, which drew support from the band’s burgeoning fanbase. All 13 tracks of ‘We’re All The Same’ feature a message, an agenda or mantra none more poignant than the album title.
