Raise The Bridges “Beauty In The Trenches” is OUT NOW

Raise The Bridges new album Beauty In the Trenches is out now on Taxidermy Records

r
aise The Bridges create party music with purpose. Headed by chief songwriter Scotty Del, the blend of rock, ska, punk and hip hop recalls the raw energy of Sublime with a post-millennium mashup aesthetic. Beauty In The Trenches is their third studio album, and explores every avenue of their style, constantly returning to the theme of finding the beauty of friendship in the struggle for growth.

The album never stops moving through the ups and downs. Cuts like “Wonder Why” and “One-way Runway” are party jams, stories of good times with great friends that we hope will never end. Other songs such as “It’s On Now” explore darker sides of life, the brutal depths that many people live through. Overall their message is of hope, inspiration and the importance of being true to the people who support you.

The album features guest appearances from a few local artists and some internationally renown folks. Legendary Wu-Tang emcee Killah Priest dropped by the studio during one session, and hearing the beat asked the boys if he could drop a verse – the result is “B.E.N.” – a powerful ode to continuing on in the face of struggle. International lifestyle enthusiast Josh Martinez, of the highly acclaimed duo The Chicharones, also jumps in the mix for “Drive Thru”, a piano driven blues-funk joint about another day spent partying. Max Graves of Eddie Valiant drops his hard hitting workingmans poetry on “Jack and Coke” and Diction-One “the unofficial 6th member of the Bridges” comes through for the party cut “One-Way Runway”.
