Beast: Devil

From their debut self-titled album, this is ‘Devil’ from Montreal-based band Beast, who are playing various venues this week in NYC for the CMJ Music Marathon and Film Festival.

Beast “It’s hard to tell you what we do. …when we first started doing it we had no idea either. Count it in, see what happens. Slightly amused, massively inspired and very curious, we kept  searching and then  locked and loaded this CD.

What’s the backstory? Well, we live in Montreal. Betty Bonifassi sang on the Oscar nominated soundtrack, Triplettes of Bellville…. sang at the Oscars actually. Betty also sang on the hit DJ Champion album “Chill ‘em all” which she toured to sell outs everywhere. Jean-Phi Goncalves has written, produced and played drums for Araine Moffat, Pierre Lapointe, Jean Pierre Ferland, Lauryn Hill and many others. He is a founding member of Montreal’s Plaster. The Beast CD dropped  Nov. 18 in Canada, March 3 in the States.” [MySpace bio]
