‘Butcher and The Butterfly’ is the end of a trilogy of albums that explored Katie-Jane Garside’s own obsessions: exploitation, sexuality, innocence, childhood and the things that people do to make it through the night.
With Queenadreena the finger always points inwardly as well as outwardly, but along with the disgust and shock, ‘Butcher and The Butterfly’ can’t contain the sheer joy of taking that violence and rage and using it to create something new.
Tunes like the brilliant ‘In Red’ take an exhilaratingly physical approach to rock’ n’ roll that sounds as much like a kind of explosive blues as it does punk or metal.
Includes controversial single ‘FM Doll’, which discusses child beauty pageants and the 1996 murder of JonBenét Ramsey.
