Big Business Stream New Album, The Beast You Are, via Kerrang
| April 10, 2019, LOS ANGELES – Big Business, who kick off their North American headlining tour tomorrow, stream their new album, The Beast You Are (April 12, Joyful Noise Recordings) via Kerrang (https://www.kerrang.com/the-news/exclusive-big-business-invite-you-to-peel-off-your-human-costume-and-check-out-their-new-record/). “The twosome of bassist-vocalist Jared Warren and drummer-vocalist Coady Willis… feel best as a power duo,” said Revolver in a recent article, adding, “The Beast You Are… is another slab of sludgy, gnarly, punky, riffy heavy rawk.” The pair said of their two-piece incarnation: “It gives us more room to be weirder in certain aspects and try different things. It makes sense because that’s how we established ourselves in the beginning and how we learned to write songs together, it was just the two of us.” Pre-orders for the thirteen-song album, including vinyl packages, are available now via (joyfulnoi.se/BigBizBeast) with “Let Them Grind” (https://youtu.be/XIsyTxgSxwo), “Heal The Week” (https://youtu.be/KrIP9mCzNKc) and “Time and Heat” (https://youtu.be/-yywlnmokv8) available as instant downloads.

“Big Business have been a monstrous band since forming 15 years ago, but I don’t think they’ve ever written songs as downright catchy as the singles released from The Beast You Are. Something must have just really clicked during the making of this album, ’cause these songs see Big Business firing on all cylinders. They’ve got that trademark Big Business sound, but they also sound like a brand new band.” – Brooklyn Vegan
