Beasto Blanco to release new industrial metal album ‘Kinetica’
Beasto Blanco
Out on July 26 via COP International is the newest album from the industrial metal act Beasto Blanco, “Kinetica”. The new release features tracks such as “Run For Your Life”, “Nobody Move”, “Heavy Is The Head”, “Unreal”, “Kill Us Off With A Smile”, “Skull Rider”, “Slide”, “Lowlands”, “Diamond In The Dirt”, “Bad Thoughts”, and “Fight”.
Calico Cooper says this about the creative process and influences behind the album: “We were looking for a sound inspired by Rob Zombie, Ministry, and Glenn Danzig. Chris Harms (Lord of The Lost) instantly got that vibe. We flew to Hamburg to track the vocals and finish the writing in February, and the sessions were just amazing. Great energy in that city!”
Chris Harms adds, “Working with Beasto Blanco was one of the most creative and exciting productions of my career. For a few months, I was allowed to dive into the band’s world, so deeply that it felt like I was part of the band. We wrote, recorded, and produced songs together, with great attention to detail and no genre boundaries. Everything that felt good was right. I’m very proud of this album, which for me is a milestone in BB’s career!”
Beasto Blanco was formed in 2012 by Chuck Garric and Chris Latham, and also includes Calico Cooper, daughter of Alice Cooper, and a German rhythm section. The band consists of Chuck Garric on vocals and guitar, Calico Cooper on vocals, Brother Latham on guitar, Jan Legrow on bass, and Sean Sellers on drums.
“Kinetica” was produced by Chris Harms, mixed and mastered by Benjamin Lawrenz and Chris Harms at Chameleon Studios in Hamburg, Germany. The engineering and editing were handled by Benjamin Mundigler and Gerrit Heinemann, with programming by Chris Harms and Corvin Bahn. Additional guitars and bass were provided by Benjamin Mundigler and Chris Harms. The cover art was created by Greg Rolfes, with layout by DCore.
