Breakfast of Failures

Vinyl LP pressing. 2014 album from the Minneapolis trio. The Blind Shake crafts dense, massive locomotive music - powerful sounds with the ability to careen through one cinematic, post-apocalyptic chase scene after another. BREAKFAST OF FAILURES comes clanging and crashing through these confused times. Fronted by brothers Jim and Mike Blaha along with friend Dave Roper on drums, the trio was tunneling through the underground since before telephones could talk. With six full-length albums to their credit, several singles, three collaborations with psych legend Michael Yonkers and another with down stroke warrior John Reis, The Blind Shake continues to push the sliding scale between catchy punk songs and pitch-red noise.
