Berlin heavy rockers Scream of the Butterfly work just a tinge of grunge into the instant-sing-along two-stage hook of the new single from their upcoming debut album, Ignition. Set for issue this week via Burning Wax Productions — a new collaboration between Heavy Psych Sounds and Subsound Records — the full-length is led off by “Solid Ground Shaking,” and as you can hear/see in the video below for the track, the four-piece find a place for themselves between methods classic and modern, organ playing a central role amid creatively-drawn vocal layers, forward rhythmic drive and traditionalist swing that ensures Ignition‘s subsequent tracks are led into in such a way as to suitably evoke the record’s title. If this is Scream of the Butterfly taking flight, well, at least it sounds like it.

scream-of-the-butterfly-ignitionApart perhaps from that grunge-era influence, it should be noted that the band has just about nothing in common with the Acid Bath song from which they take their name or that group’s general filth-covered methodology. Rather, working with producer Richard Behrens (Heat, ex-Samsara Blues Experiment), they bring a sharp and straightforward tack that, going by “Solid Ground Shaking,” asks little more of the listener than perhaps a bit of well-earned boogieing. I haven’t heard the full album yet, so it could be that Scream of the Butterfly totally prog out at some point or other, but they’re also streaming the somewhat punkier “Turning Me Loose” which you can hear at the bottom of this post, and to put it mildly, that song as well keeps its chorus front and center, boding well for the rest of Ignition to follow.

Preorders have already started for the Sept. 29 release, and you can dig into those links and more info from the PR wire under the premiere of the clip for “Solid Ground Shaking” below, which captures the band performing amid a psychedelic lightshow and a haze that in no way affects the obvious clarity at root in their approach.

Music video by Scream Of The Butterfly performing ‘Solid Ground Shaking’, off the album IGNITION. New album will be released September 29th via Burning Wax Productions. Presale starts September 15th. Released in LTD Colored Vinyl, Black Vinyl, CD and Digital.

Ignition” marks a ferocious kick start of the Berlin based band Scream Of The Butterfly into the crazy world of rock’n’roll. Powerful guitar riffs, a tight rhythm section and versatile melodies topped with a portion of vintage hammond organ will please the fans of classic 70s rock as well as grunge and contemporary rock lovers. The eight songs, recorded by Kadavar sound-engineer Richard Behrens, are well picked and balanced to deliver the audience some high energy rock tunes combined with a road trip feeling and the solid power of massive riffs closing with an emotional but still powerful ballad.

Roughness, drive and attitude of “Ignition” became visible with the stunning cover-artwork by Branca Studio.
