Saint James Society - BABAYLON RISING 12 inch

Austin, TX psych rock gang THE SAINT JAMES SOCIETY plays
electrifying rock music that brilliantly connects the dots
between dark ‘60s blues-based garage rock and early ‘80s post
punk resulting in a hypnotically powerful sound the fabulous
four-piece calls "Pentecostal Desert Glam." TSJS's full length
debut – the mystically-titled Bab(a/y)lon Rising – pulses
through the speakers like punk rock gypsies on a rampage,
perfectly capturing the band's apocalyptic nomad-rock as it
drips with dark fuzz and acid drone that will surely find favor
with restless sinners everywhere. Equal parts style and sound,
THE SAINT JAMES SOCIETY blends sex, rebellion and
mysticism with a fascination for western mystic traditions and
secret societies, creating modern music that aims to awaken
something deep and wonderfully dangerous within the
listener. It has been said that "The Saint James Society sounds
as good as any band on the planet at full volume," a point to
which the band's bustling fan network of artists, writers,
musicians, filmmakers, photographers, creeps and thieves
would most assuredly agree. When the heavy swagger of
vocalist/bassist Brandon Burkart and golden guitars of
Dahveed Dubois align with the band's heavy-footed rhythms,
ticking-time-bomb beat and stunning twin vocal tandem of
rebel queens Elza Burkart and Candice Bertalan, the resulting
musical statement mainlines the thrill of defiance straight to
the listener's heart. Fire up Bab(a/y)lon Rising and find out for
yourself what the buzz is all about; you just might discover
your new favorite band.
