Made Out of Babies

Brooklyn's female-fronted post-sludge metal outfit Made Out of Babies return with a complex third album. Impassioned vocals shift from placid to brutal, offering melodic verses, shrill bridges, brooding layers and soft, ethereal passages alongside heavy instrumental distortion reminiscent of grunge's early flirtations with metal. The deep riffing of slow-burning tracks like "Cooker" and the ruggedness of frantic tracks like "Bunny Boots" mark the dark, playful unpredictability this quartet promises.
