The Killer Meters continue to build towards the release of their second album with a brand new single containing 2 more dancefloor monsters. The first single left many fans of their traditional Meters style funk sound a bit flummoxed. What was that rock guitar doing in there? "Freak" completes the picture. It's got some of the same fuzz going on but the drums hit harder and the keyboard riff adds some psychedelic edges. Karime tells us a story of going out and not being able to take her eyes off somebody "I can't take my eyes off the Freak... There's a diva inside needing some love…." Who's the Freak here you might ask? The band answer the question with each instrument taking a turn to freak out, culminating in one of the heaviest drum breaks made in recent years. This song has it all, late night tales, incredible vocals, incredible musicianship and it has worked on every dancefloor that the Breakin Bread crew have so far dropped it on.The second track "Stomp" is a complete change in style. Here the KM's give a nod to 60's psychedelic swing records as well as the rolling drum breaks beloved of so many northen soul stompers. Kicking things off at a frenetic pace, Karime emplores us all to "Shout" and "Dance All Night". In double quick time (the tune is only just over 2 minutes long, just like a 60's pop record!) the song builds to a climax and we challenge you not to be stomping around by the end of it.For added value the double 7" pack contains both vocal versions and 2 drum led breaks/dub versions for the DJ's who like to be creative. Once again the release is beautifully packaged in true Breakin Bread fashion. The double pack has a full colour sleeve with illustrations from the Brighton based artist, Sri.As well as being great studio musicians, the The Killer Meters are super dope live. If you want to come and see the psych/funk phenomenon live come and check them at their residency at the Jazz Café (every other month on Breakin Bread nights, check breakinbread.org for more info)
