I was going to a party (what time is it?) it was the middle of the night (let's crash that shit) my people said come over (we need ten beers) because this party's out of sight (I mean right here) coming 'round the corner (real sound) that's when I heard the band (I said, real sound) my booty started shaking (keep fucking that chicken) and then that shit got out of hand (sorry 'bout that) Fredericksburg!

about

REAL SOUND is our studio debut and it sure is exciting. Working locally with Wally Cleaver's Recording Studio, we crammed all the raw energy of our live shows into five explosive tracks. There's plenty of shouting, huge drums, and horns on fire. All the tracks are original and hard core, no fluff around the edges. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we did making it. Be sure to check out the trading cards that come with the physical CD, a rare treat from all of us at ELBY BRASS.
