{"title":"Beasts of Bourbon","description":"\u003cp\u003eBeasts of Bourbon started as a stopgap: Tex Perkins needed a band to fill gigs already booked, and pulled in players from The Scientists, Hoodoo Gurus and The Johnnys. Their debut, \u003cem\u003eThe Axeman's Jazz\u003c\/em\u003e, was cut in a single eight-hour session in 1983 for about $100, a raw slab of swamp rock and dark country led by a menacing take on Leon Payne's 'Psycho'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLater records traded the swamp for gutbucket blues. \u003cem\u003eSour Mash\u003c\/em\u003e leaned hard on slide guitar, \u003cem\u003eBlack Milk\u003c\/em\u003e was deliberately eclectic, and \u003cem\u003eThe Low Road\u003c\/em\u003e came out swinging with hard-nosed riffs, Perkins' growling baritone and the tangled guitars of Spencer P. Jones and Kim Salmon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe line-up shifted through splits and returns over four decades. After Jones and Brian Hooper died in 2018, the survivors carried on as The Beasts, releasing \u003cem\u003eStill Here\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eUltimo\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"fungilator-recommended-artists\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color:#C4293D;font-weight:bold;\"\u003eIf you like Beasts of Bourbon you should check out:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/scientists-vinyl\"\u003eThe Scientists\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cruel-sea-vinyl\"\u003eThe Cruel Sea\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/gun-club-vinyl\"\u003eThe Gun Club\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cramps-vinyl\"\u003eThe Cramps\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/birthday-party-vinyl\"\u003eThe Birthday Party\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/nick-cave-vinyl\"\u003eNick Cave\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/rowland-s-howard-vinyl\"\u003eRowland S.
