Daptone Records is proud to present The Budos Band III, unleashing The Budos Band’s brazen sound and inspiring fervor among music lovers throughout the world. Produced by Bosco Mann and TNT at Daptone Records’ “House of Soul Studios” in Bushwick, Brooklyn, the band’s third full-length studio effort was conceived during weekly, beer-fueled Staten Island writing sessions – as well as more than 150 live gigs over the last two years – and recorded during a 48 hour period in January 2010.
If the menacing album art, which features a cobra primed for the attack, is any indication of the music itself, we can expect an all out assault of the senses, with a tendency towards the venomous and psychedelic. In other words, "The Budos Is Upon You..." Check out this video for a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the record as well as a basic primer in Budos Mythology.
Fans of the Budos will also enjoy the new 45 from Los Sospechos, being released this Tuesday, August 17th on Colemine Records. Produced by Budos members, Mike Deller and John Carbonella (Car-Del) at the Dunham Records studio, and featuring the Budos horn section, this is the first single from the soundtrack to the feature film, Postales.
