Single Review: The Brute Chorus – All The Pilgrims (Self-released)
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 1 June 2009
This is the fourth single released by London four-piece The Brute Chorus. Recorded live at the Roundhouse in Camden the track is infused with a raw quality and a closeness rarely heard on budget recordings. For the live recording they enlisted the help of Mercury-nominated producers Choque Hosein and Victor Van Vugt; the latter best known for his work with Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds and Gogol Bordello. The influences of both are obvious. The bass is funky, even if the shredding guitar sounds a little amateur, and the drums kick along like an old school skiffle band. If the live single is any kind of representation of their live shows then The Brute Chorus are definitely a band to check out. GM
