Sitting in the studio during the take of “Miles Away / Brave” was stunning. The presentation, power, and warrior-like cries from their vocalist, Stefanie Mannaerts, was so visceral. It pulled from something deep and primal within all of us, and channeled it through the three members of Brutus.
When asked about this, they respond quite plainly: it’s about hanging out with your friends, being yourself, and having fun.
Such a simple idea from one of the most recognizable sounds in modern rock and metal music. Undeniably, Brutus is a force to be reckoned with, both in presentation and execution. Drumming and singing has been done before, but never like this. And when bolstered by the melodic guitar stylings of Stijn Vanhoegaerden and the huge bass tones of Peter Mulders, it feels as if 12 people are playing instead of 3.
Attending their performance that evening, it was clear how commanding of your attention this band is, while being shrouded in darkness with nearly no front-lighting whatsoever. And yet you can’t look away. It feels like watching 3 ancient deities perform music from the heavens, but it’s really just Stijn, Peter, and Stefanie having fun together.
We’re very honored to share this brilliant performance from Brutus on Audiotree From Nothing.

I discovered brutus while serching for bands and artists in the "fans like this too" part of Spotify of the band King Woman. I discovered Dust and I thought "oh my god I have to be really careful to don't miss this one in live" because I hate when it happens so I checked their tour dates and they were playing three days later in my home city in France so I came back to see my parents and I bought tickets to discover it live. It was the fastest from nothing to extreme important music artists in my life and probably one of the best show I've ever seen.

Victoria really throws me back to the very early 2000’s and the nostalgia is so bittersweet, it’s time travel for me with a gut punch and a sting in the heart. I love this band so much. Every time I tell the universe I need new music, something that makes me excited and gives me the fire to get through, it answers via KZfaq’s algorithm. EVERY time. This band popped up when I needed life. So grateful. Hope to see them live. 🖤⚡️🤘🏽🔥🗡️🛡️

I gotta confess.. The first time I heard Brutus, it was their first album , i wasn't impress. A good friend of mine told me about them and I was like "Meehh.. they're Ok I guess". Until i caught them live, opening for Thrice in Amsterdam.. and man, I was blown' away. Literally. Turned to my friend at the gig and yelled: "Holy shit! This is really good!!" and he laughed so hard. It's been an amazing ride for Brutus. Keep it up!

Stephanie is so right, I’m fundamentally a metalhead who mainly likes the extreme & progressive side of the genre. And since I discovered Brutus, 2 years ago, I fucking love them, their music and talent are true pleasures… but not at all guilty ones, I consider myself a proud fan of them. All 3 studio albums are masterpieces, but where they shine is live on stage, mind blowing performances!

@GrantJohnson85 8 ай бұрын

Every time I listen to Unison Life I have a new favorite song. Their sound is so MASSIVE they sound more like a 3-piece orchestra than a band. They are like a force of nature, like a storm, like a pack of wolves on the hunt, like thousands of naked warriors running over the hills toward the battlefield. The first time I heard them my friend played me “Cemetery” and my immediate thought was ‘this is the only music I want to listen to from now on’. They have a PERFECT sound. Stijn really does sound like 2 or 3 guitarists, he’s amazing. Peter and Stefanie are absolutely propulsive as a rhythm section, they’re like a freight train, and Stefanie’s voice is so devastatingly gorgeous she brings me to tears with every vocal flourish. I can’t wait to see them live. Thank you, Brutus, and thank you, Audiotree. Dank u wel

Brutus has been one of the bands that I at first didn‘t like but then it „clicked“ and I felt the emotion in the song effecting me. They grew on me and I adore them as a band that has had a huge influence on my own guitar playing and song writing. I saw them live last year in 2022 as part of a mini festival and they were the most real, humble and down to earth band. They carried out their own equipment to the stage, no roadies. During a new unreleased song from the new album they fucked up so they apologised and restarted the song. It was a moment of realness that the other bands, a death metal and black metal didn‘t had IMO. At the time I had my own band and we hadn‘t played yet and when I saw the two other bands I thought to myself that my band can never be like them. They were like robots playing to a click and with IEMs. But when Brutus played I thought these guys and girl are just like us, we can be like them. They are on the stage to have fun and play music with each other. I will always remember this moment.

It was cool getting to tell them, I was at the Prague show two months later at the Greensboro show. They were impressed.
