Led by the dynamic frontwomen Heidi Shepherd and Carla Harvey, L.A.’s Butcher Babies rip through heavy-metal riffs with the unrelenting velocity of a 10-ton truck—yet even their most larynx-shredding, sludge-encrusted moments go down with theatrical flair. Formed in 2010, they mix the uncompromising bravura of Wendy O. Williams with the technical mastery of Slipknot, balancing in-your-face aggression with bottom-heavy groove on fan favourites like “Monsters Ball” and “Headspin”. They’re a band that keep you surprised as they find grit and heart in the most soaring melodies and bloodcurdling screams.
