‘GOLIATH’ proved to be a giant in its first week on-sale, landing the BUTCHER BABIES the top spot on the Billboard New Artist/Heatseakers chart. Released July 9, the debut album entered the chart at No. 1, while also entering the Billboard Top 200 album chart at No. 112 with first-week sales in excess of 3400.
Hailed as one of the must-see bands on the 2013 Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival (dates below), fans and critics alike are heralding the debut album from Los Angeles’ BUTCHER BABIES.
“Their debut album ‘GOLIATH’ is a relentless, full-force storm from start to finish… The breakdowns are heavy, the solos are face-melting and the screams created by vocalists Heidi Shepherd and Carla Harvey are absolutely ungodly, but in the greatest of ways.” –new-transcendence.com (10/10)
“...the record to beat in 2013. This CD is a monster and has really raised the bar for not only female metal singers, but metal bands in general. Believe the hype, this is a must buy CD. The BUTCHER BABIES are for real, and metal will never be the same again.”
