Our 3rd LP, “Raise Up the Sheets”, out March 13th on Bat Rabies Alert/The End Records


"Raise Up the Sheets"

Raise Up The Sheets attacks on every front like a pandemic. The songs are prettier, darker, more concise and more expansive. Lipez is wounded and acerbic, the rhythm section both tight and monstrous with military precision and vulgar swing, the twin guitars frantic, chaotic and dangerous as a sharpened screwdriver. The whole band sounds like they’ve been cornered and will have to fight their way out. It’s anyone’s guess who will win, but either way, it’ll be worth watching.

 

 

Produced by Jim Sclavunos
Engineered by Andrew Schneider at Translator Audio in Brooklyn

RCRDLBL reviews “The Bigger Man” – Free mp3 download

“Freshkills seem, at times, like a full orchestra on “Bigger Man.” The reverb-drenched staccato guitar in combination with the heavy bass, the cacophony that opens the song, sounds more like a string quartet than a rock band…..”
