New Orleans metal/hardcore powerhouse, BRAT, will release its new LP, 'Manslayer', on September 25 via Prosthetic Records. BRAT's eagerly awaited sophomore album, recorded at Bricktop in Chicago with Andy Nelson (Weekend Nachos), delivers maximum weight and minimum mercy. The follow-up to BRAT's 2024 debut, 'Social Grace', ‘Manslayer’ features primitive death metal, garroting thrash, and swamp-drenched hardcore for devotees of the darkest reaches of the underground.

BRAT has had a relentless live schedule over the last three years, which saw the band hit the road with the likes of Gwar, Napalm Death, Crowbar, Cro-Mags, Full Of Hell and more.

BRAT’s tongue in cheek aesthetic evolves into a more feral and ferocious nature with the blood soaked ‘Manslayer’. Still anti- purist in nature, ‘Manslayer’ is a cataclysmically heavy album not suited for pearl-clutchers or the faint of heart.

BRAT is:

Brenner Moate – Lead Guitar

Liz Selfish – Vocals

Dustin Eagan – Drums

Ian Hennessey - Bass/Rhythm Guitar

“Manslayer' represents a scaling up of ambition, sound, and vision for BRAT. The concepts are bigger, the music more widescreen, and it is all bound to translate into absolute mayhem live”
