Sitting in the studio during the take of “Miles Away / Brave” was stunning. The presentation, power, and warrior-like cries from their vocalist, Stefanie Mannaerts, was so visceral. It pulled from something deep and primal within all of us, and channeled it through the three members of Brutus.
When asked about this, they respond quite plainly: it’s about hanging out with your friends, being yourself, and having fun.
Such a simple idea from one of the most recognizable sounds in modern rock and metal music. Undeniably, Brutus is a force to be reckoned with, both in presentation and execution. Drumming and singing has been done before, but never like this. And when bolstered by the melodic guitar stylings of Stijn Vanhoegaerden and the huge bass tones of Peter Mulders, it feels as if 12 people are playing instead of 3.
Attending their performance that evening, it was clear how commanding of your attention this band is, while being shrouded in darkness with nearly no front-lighting whatsoever. And yet you can’t look away. It feels like watching 3 ancient deities perform music from the heavens, but it’s really just Stijn, Peter, and Stefanie having fun together.
We’re very honored to share this brilliant performance from Brutus on Audiotree From Nothing.
