A one of a kind if ever there was one, Kerry-born songwriter and musician Junior Brother signs to Pete Doherty's Strap Originals and announces a new album with it's idiosyncratic lead single 'Small Violence'. The first taste of The End is a uniquely deranged offering, marrying doom and folk in a way that seems to only make sense through the Junior Brother lens. Painting a visceral story through his unrivalled lyricism and distinct delivery style, he explains: “Small Violence follows a character pulled in by a small few who enjoy using violent words to stoke real violence further down the line. The intro riff was heavily inspired by the Opening Titles of “The Blood on Satan’s Claw”, a Folk Horror from 1971 which I highly recommend to anyone except the sensible.” The macabre black and white video further brings the tale to life, directed by Ellius Grace & Junior Brother himself. We highly recommend you pay attention to this one. -Holly Mullineaux
