REVEREND BEAT-MAN & MILAN SLICK: Death Crossed The Street LP

Description

Two generations collide: Reverend Beat-Man, one-man band and King of Blues Trash meets Milan Slick, The Darkest Soul of Bern, fresh and vibrant, dark synth rock’n’roll punk Garage and Goth Trash is the message. after collaborating for couple years on film projects and touring, it was time to record those 10 songs.
The album was recorded by Robert Butler in the former Züri West Studio in Bern, Switzerland and mixed and mastered by Matt Bordin in Italy

Reverend Beat-Man and Milan Slick met in 2020, amid the pandemic, while writing a soundtrack for Ana Lily Amirpour’s vampire film “A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night.” They played in Paris at the renowned Super Sonic Records and at the legendary SO36 in Berlin. They then recorded an album with Beatrice Graf and Benjamin Glaus called “Reverend Beat-Man and the Underground.” They produced this as part of the Rocklette PALP Festival, a soundtrack and a macabre dance party for the downfall of humanity. A one-man band, super primitive rock ‘n’ roll trash, hi-energy, lo-fi. Reverend Beat-Man met the sophisticated, clever, playful, and dark Milan Slick and from March 4th to 6th, 2025, they recorded their first full length studio album in the former „Züri West“ studio with Sebastian Zwahlen and the unique Robert Butler (Miracle Workers).
