BELUSHI SPEED BALL Announces Album Release On Nintendo 64, Reveal First Track
The Louisville, KY, based thrash metal outfit, BELUSHI SPEED BALL, are preparing to unleash their new single “Tattletale Strangler” on April 8th, 2022. Taken from the upcoming album What us, Worry?, the band's wild antics are being transported from the theatrics of the stage onto the beloved Nintendo 64.
“So here’s a thing… we’ve all seen those cattle mutilations leaving Chester steakhouse looking like Swiss cheese and wondered: what are those aliens looking for? Well, BELUSHI SPEED BALL has the answer, Sherlock Hansen! They wanted to get their sweet green tentacle fingers on a hot 64 bit cartridge with their favorite tunes on it. But you don’t have to travel light years or wait until Independence Day like the Martians. You can get that sweet salvation for Nintendo 64 today.”
May 13th, 2022 will see the release of the new album What us, Worry? via sonaBLAST! Records on multiple media options, including CD, Game Boy Advance, and Nintendo 64. The upcoming record also contains an entire grindcore album on it; 7 songs in 2 minutes written by Louisville Hardcore legend Blake Herbert. What us, Worry? includes a myriad of talented people behind the scenes. It is mastered by Joel Grind (TOXIC HOLOCAUST), recorded and mixed by Chase Bensing, and spotlights artwork by Andrei Bouzikov (MUNICIPAL WASTE: Art of Partying). It also features guest guitar solos from Jamison Land (Former GWAR BEEFCAKE THE MIGHTY, THE BURIAL), Tony Barhoum (CONDITION CRITICAL), and Nicholas Burks (SAVAGE MASTER, WARCLOUD).
