Borracho Update on New Album; Announce Title Atacama

borracho

As we speak, or at very least as of this past weekend, Washington, D.C. trio Borracho were holed up in the studio with Frank “The Punisher” Marchand recording their yet-untitled third long-player for what I’ll presume is a summer/fall release, depending on who’s doing it, how long the rest of the recording process takes, etc. Either way, that there’s work being done on it at all is good news for those who dig heavy riffs, thick grooves, and who got into the classic dynamic they showed off on last year’s The Second Coming of Heavy: Chapter One split with Geezer (review here).

I’ll keep you posted as I hear more about the album being done and the inevitable release date. Borracho have a couple shows this weekend in D.C. and Baltimore and a Delaware gig next weekend, and you can find that info as well as their studio update below, hoisted from their latest newsletter:

*UPDATE:* After this post initially went up, Borracho announced the record is about to enter the mixing phase and “will be titled Atacama — named for the driest desert on Earth in Chile.”

Spring show dates and studio update

It’s been a while, we’ve been away. But now we’re back, and here to stay. After a winter holed up writing for our next record, we’re finally hitting the stage for the first time in 2016. Please join us for a trio of shows this month in DC, MD and DE. We’re stoked to be rocking with some old friends, and some new ones too.

March 18 – Washington, DC &at; The Velvet Lounge w/ Floodlore & Electric Factory
March 19 – Baltimore, MD &at; Guido’s Speakeasy w/ The Rob Queen Band & King Dead
March 26 – Wilmington, DE &at; Oddity Bar w/ Kingsnake, Blackhand, Worth & Double Planet

Update from the studio

That’s right. We’ve taken decisive action on all that writing we did over the winter, and we’re damn near finished tracking for our forthcoming new LP. All new heavy grooves have been laid down at our main man Frank Marchand’s brand new House of Rock studio in Maryland, and we’ll be putting the final touches on it over the next few weeks. Stay tuned for more details in the coming months.
