For an Italian label, Cruz Del Sur Music has long
dug into the fertile musical grounds of the state of Pennsylvania. The label’s
first-ever signing was melodic metal heroes Pharaoh, who since 2003, have
remained one of Cruz Del Sur’s flagship bands. Classic doom merchants Argus and
melodic thrashers Crown The Lost soon followed, giving the label an American
flavor to go along with its heavily-stocked European roster. Therefore, it’s no
surprise one of the label’s latest signings also comes from the great state of
PA: Pittsburgh’s Lady Beast. Originally formed in 2009, Lady Beast quickly
immersed itself in the East Coast live scene, developing a reputation as a band
who can seamlessly blend venerable NWOBHM sounds and thrash. Fronted by the
charismatic Deborah Levine, Lady Beast’s studio output helped catch the
attention of Cruz Del Sur, who signed the band and sent them off into the
studio to record their sophomore full-length, “Vicious Breed”. Recorded at +/-
Studios in Pittsburgh under the supervision of Jason Jouver, “Vicious Breed” is
Lady Beast’s most dynamic album to date. Sporting a wide variety of moods and
flavors, “Vicious Breed” features the speedy title track, downright heavy “Lone
Hunter”, the balladry of “Always With Me” and the straight-up rock of “Get Out
of My Way”. Guitarist Twiz states matter-of-factly: “I'm probably most proud of
the songs on this than I am of other stuff I've written.” “I am very proud of
the melodies and lyrical content on this album,” adds Levine. “I have a bit of
a formula when I start writing lyrics. The music and feel of the song obviously
help the direction I turn, but also I like to have a skeleton of the same idea
for each album. The song of an epic story, the hopeful song, the metal ripper,
etc. Each is important as it builds the album as a whole. On 'Vicious Breed',
we have our first ballad, on which it will be fun to slow it down and have
people hear a different side of us.” Stocked with soaring twin-guitar
harmonies, headstrong vocals, pounding tempos and would-be classic metal
anthems, “Vicious Breed” is Lady Beast’s coming out party. With the support of
Cruz Del Sur, it’s only appropriate Lady Beast have their sights set on
conquering the international metal scene. Beware…your town may be the next to
feel the strike of the beast!
