Butcher Babies returned to Aftershock Festival with a fierce set!

We were glad to see the return of the Butcher Babies at this year’s Monster Energy Aftershock Festival. They are one of the most energetic female fronted bands out today. What is really awesome is that these frontwomen could give many men a run for their money when it comes to bringing power and presence to the stage. They hit the stage and took control of the crowd, energized everyone and definitely raised the heat a dozen or so degrees! We will be bringing you an interview with vocalist, Heidi Shepard later this week. Check out the photos by our Rockin Ryan from their blazing set:

We were glad to hear them perform songs from their new EP Uncovered which is due out on September 30th through Century Media Records. The 5 song EP will feature cover songs that were chosen by each band member, and in the early summer of this year, they entered the studio with producer Logan Mader (DEVILDRIVER, GOJIRA, 5 FINGER DEATH PUNCH) to dissect and “butcher” these five classics, creating something all their own. Check out the track listing:

Uncovered track-listing
1. Beer Drinkers and Hell Raisers
2. They’re Coming to Take Me Away
3. Don’t Give a Fuck
4. Crazy Horses
5. Pussy Whipped
