Frenzal Rhomb The Cup Of Pestilence

Back in the mire of the early nineties, from somewhere beneath a pile of wallet chains and cut-off army pants Frenzal Rhomb emerged, their white suburban fingers clutching onto goon casks and bucket bongs and other appropriate paraphernalia. Before too long those fingers wrote riffs and those riffs became songs and their voices sung rhyming swear words in perfect three-part harmony. After countless world tours, sharing the stage with everyone from Nofx to Nickelback. Playing all around Australia, from Broome to Bunbury and Bundaberg to Brunswick, offending and entertaining people in equal measure along the way. Being welcomed into people's lives and banned from radio stations, often for the same reasons. The dubious honor of being the most hospitalized band in the world—everything from broken drumming arms and detached guitar-playing retinas to an actual pig-borne tapeworm in the lead singer's brain—it's amazing that Frenzal Rhomb are here at all. But Frenzal Rhomb are still here, and back with their 10th studio album! Recorded, mixed and mastered at The Blasting Room by Bill Stevenson, Jason Livermore, Andrew Berlin and Chris Beeble; The Cup of Pestilence is 19 songs full of the characters and slightly discomforting ideas that you’ve come to love from Frenzal Rhomb. The stories of good times, beloved friends and slightly less-friendly types, the tales of enlightenment through recreational substances, and some great budgetary ideas for a cash-strapped household. All of this under a serious number of hot riffs and licks, brilliant bass lines, and devastating drum bits sure to satiate each and every Frenzal Rhomb fan across the globe.
