 | | Description: | We may already be this screwed, the Builders and the Butchers seem to be suggesting throughout Dead Reckoning. High time we started shouting about it. The Builders and Butchers combine folksy Americana with a hybrid of Celtic and Southern gothic traditions, creating a sound that doesnâ??t evoke one specific location as much as a patchwork of long-forgotten places. The guys keep things loose on their third album, Dead Reckoning, whose 12 songs were recorded in a series of live takes with few overdubs. The result isnâ??t as lushly textured as Salvation Is a Deep Dark Well, which found the Builders beefing up their old-time folk songs with 21st century production, but itâ??s far more representative of their live show. Apart from guest performers Amanda Lawrence and Zy Orange Lynn, both of whom add string parts to the album, Dead Reckoning is a stripped-down effort, with acoustic instruments taking precedence over their electric counterparts and a sense of raw, off-the-cuff energy reigning supreme. - TURQUOISE VINYL"Dead Reckoning" is an intense and atmospheric LP by the band Builders & The Butchers, released by the independent label Jealous Bu. On this vinyl album, the band blends dark folk, Americana, and raw indie rock into a sound that is both narratively rich and emotionally gripping. Gritty guitars, driving percussion, and haunting vocal harmonies create the feeling of a cinematic road trip through dusty landscapes and nocturnal city streets. The songs often build from quiet, tension-filled passages to powerful, cathartic climaxes, making the LP a compelling listen from the first groove to the runout.
Lyrically, "Dead Reckoning" is steeped in imagery of fate, reckoning, and moral crossroads, echoing roots music traditions while sounding fresh and contemporary. The production preserves a live, organic energy--perfect for vinyl--so that every strum, drum hit, and vocal nuance feels immediate and present. This makes the LP ideal both for focused listening on a good hi-fi system and as an evocative soundtrack for late-night sessions. Fans of dark folk, alternative Americana, and storytelling-driven rock will find a cohesive album experience rather than just a collection of songs.
Builders & The Butchers are known for their high-energy performances and their unique blend of folk instrumentation with rock intensity. Emerging from the indie and folk scenes of the Pacific Northwest, they have built a devoted following through relentless touring and a series of critically appreciated releases. Their work is often praised for its vivid storytelling, tight ensemble playing, and the way they fuse traditional Americana elements with a modern, almost cinematic sense of drama. Over the years, the band has shared stages with a variety of respected indie and roots acts, steadily expanding their audience.
The LP format gives "Dead Reckoning" the space it needs: side A and side B each unfold like chapters in a novel, encouraging listeners to experience the album in full. Jealous Bu, as the releasing label, underlines its focus on characterful, artist-driven productions that value authenticity and strong songwriting over trends. Special attention is often paid to vinyl presentation--from pressing quality to artwork--making this LP not only a musical statement but also a collectible object for fans of the band and lovers of independent music culture. |  | | Manufacturer No.: |
