We're Brutally Normal and We're Gonna Chop Your Face Off!

My last little bit of Texas music, and, I think, the best of the bunch.

Brutally Normal come from Houston, TX. Guitarist Headless Jake, bass player Nimrod Joe, and drummer Jimy the Fiend have been together since sometime around 2001 (bio info is a little scarce!). They cite as their influences the Misfits, the Ramones, the Sex Pistols, and uncomfortable antisocial behavior. The band has recorded a couple of demo disks and EPs. We’re Gonna Kill You is Brutally Normal’s second official album. It was released last year on SS Records.

“We're brothers who needed to play rock, and this is what came,” the band writes in their GarageBand entry. “We all started writing music before actually playing our instruments. Have simple songs. Simple music for simple people.”

In the seeming unlikely event any of you are in the Houston area, Brutally Normal has some upcoming shows:

03/29/2007 08:00 PM - Jake's Bar, 122228 Bissonet
04/06/2007 08:00 PM - WIRED, ???
04/15/2007 08:00 PM - The White Swan, Navigation at Lockwood
04/26/2007 08:00 PM - Jake's Bar, 122228 Bissonet
06/30/2007 08:00 PM - The White Swan, Navigation at Lockwood

These guys really rock. I think you’ll find them the best of the Texas music I’ve posted lately (if you’re into punk). Also, check Brutally Normal’s Web site for links to more information, more downloads, places to buy their stuff, and other things of that nature.
