Nashville brothers, Jake and Jamin Orrall - better known as Jeff The Brotherhood, have announced the follow up to the critically acclaimed, Heavy Days. Their new LP is titled We Are The Champions and is expected in early 2011. You can check out the first MP3 from the album, "Diamond Way," here.
The Brotherhood is currently in the middle of their final run of US tour dates for the year, including a headlining gig at New York's Music Hall Of Willamsburg on October 28th, a Cannery Ballroom hometown show with Die Antwoord on November 3rd, and a performance at Fun Fun Fun Fest in Austin, TX. The band will finish out 2010 with tours in Australia and New Zealand.
Jeff The Brotherhood has been called "kraut punk," "psychedelic grunge" and "noise pop," drawing comparisons to bands like Hawkwind, Wipers, and early Sonic Youth. Heavy Days was released in October of 2009 on family-owned Infinity Cat Records and quickly won praises from the likes of Brooklyn Vegan, Spin, the Tripwire, My Old Kentucky Blog, KEXP, Paste, Village Voice, Nylon, Nashville Scene (who recently awarded Infinity Cat "Best Nashville Record Label"), among others. JEFF supported the release with tours alongside Screaming Females, Ted Leo, Ty Segall, Lightning Bolt and more, while their frenetic performances at CMJ '09, SXSW '10, Chaos in Tejas, MFNW, and Bumbershoot were heralded by fans and critics alike. With three guitar strings and a minimal drum kit, Jeff The Brotherhood manage to distill rock to its primal essence.
