A word from the band: “After releasing our second album, »Flying Fuzz II«, in December this past year, we were feeling a bit burned out. It took us two years to produce, spanning from sophomore year of high-school to post-graduation. When it finally came out, we were ready to turn over a new leaf. As a band, we took the rest of the summer off from live performances and spent weeks preparing for a single 9 hour session at Blast House Studios. The result, as you may come to hear, is the best our group has had to offer yet. We’d like to think it has a little of something for everyone. If you find yourself listening, we thank you for your time, and hope you enjoy it.”
Inspired by the driving influence of traditional heavy metal and hard rock bands, (Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Motörhead, etc.) all 6 tracks of »Redeemer« are ripe with the bluesy wails of Flying Fuzz’ dual guitar line up, thunderous bass lines, and pounding drum beats.
Tracks 1-5 on »Redeemer« were recorded, mixed, and mastered at Blast House Studios by Dustin Sisson. Track 6 was independently produced by Cameron Selbig. Front cover art painted by Eli Kuzma.
