Brothers Grim and the Blue Murders

Brothers Grim has been described as "Ashtray Music for Sinners who've earned the blues..." It is the Bastard Project for the Inabinet brothers (Matt and James of Hellbent Revelators) and draws from the music and themes of Delta greats such as Son House, Robert Johnson and Mississippi John Hurt - and mixes them with the misspent upbringings of Rock Excess and Murder Ballad sensibilities, delivered with the subtlety of a Nail driven into concrete or crooned like a wounded Animal to its Captor. The Brothers Grim is stripped back roots at its darkest.
