Melbourne garage-psych outfit BEANS third studio album 'Boots N Cats' is out in the world today! It's available on vinyl, CD and merch bundles via the Fuzz Cub store, Rough Trade, Sound Merch and all good indies! You can purchase here

The first of two albums set for release this year, it's a record that finds Beans frontman (and The Murlocs drummer) Matt Blach putting percussion at centre-stage. A sunny kaleidoscope of chugging guitars, driving bass-lines, soaring organs and warm, echo-soaked vocals – all driven by tightly-wound rhythms and grooves.

“I’ve always wanted to make a drum-based album, dedicated around the beat first and then everything else follows”, Blach says, explaining his desire to explore “different production approaches, like hip-hop and crunched drums, and show an admiration and appreciation for the likes of The Meters, Wu-Tang and James Brown” as much as the acid-soaked 60s/70s rock you’d expect.
