Beef Supreme – Royal Bitch

Beef Supreme – Royal Bitch

Self released – 2013

Rock, Stoner, Metal

Rated: ****

The American trio Beef Supreme unleashed their first self-titled EP in September 2012 after having played together for five years. Some seven months later they’re ready to release their follow-up called Royal Bitch. Another four track strong effort that continues where their first left off. Although much of the subtlety of that first one has disappeared and the punk influences and metallic garage sound has become more apparent. Which is highly audible in the choppy, direct and can-like drumming of Lou Chalupa. It still seems to have this weird form of melody interweaving the songs. This is pure rock solid South West demeanor and laid-back attitude mixed with aggression. Add to this the ever present and even more psychedelic voice of riotgrrrl Nikki BelGrande and we can safely say that Beef Surpreme has cooked up another sweet slab of meat!

The American trio Beef Supreme has been playing together since 2007 and has truly embraced all the possibilities of the Internet age media. They offer their music for free via their homepage and are looking to make their name ring out far across the state, national and continental borders. And their goal is not farfetched for they produced some highly infectious stoner metal with an easy accessible twist. Guitarist and vocalist Nikki BelGrande takes the brunt of the attention with her intense riffs and riotgrrrl seducing voice. Lou Chalupa pounds his skins like a monster on the run and with an impressive tightness. And then there is bestial Macho Grande on bass. He not only provides the necessary room for the others to excel over; he also propels the music ever forward. It gives their first EP not only that heavy twist; it also provides that choppiness we know from punk and even has a bit of roll we know from the rockabilly scene. This is some highly supreme beef and extremely tasty!
