Summary: Love the Passion, But Not Liking The Sound Too Much
Comment: There are many things that I adore about the Butchie's album "Make Yr Life", yet many thing I dislike. For the positives, the lyrics are AWESOME mostly because they're so les, but also because of the catchiness, the vocals are often on the brink of an orgasm which is very hott, the pace of the songs is fun and very energetic. I've listened to "Send Me You" Many, many times, dispite its almost commercial sound. This album would be perfect except for the aforementioned commercial sound that pops up sometimes and also the times when the vocals crack or get pitchy, which is very irritating. The best songs are definitely "Send Me You", "She's So Lovely", and "Everything & Everywhere"

Summary: Every time I find something new to like
Comment: I first discovered this band & the cd through a music video on my cable service. It thought that the music rocked, the video was fun, & the girls were very attractive. I joked around afterwards that every straight person has someone of the same sex they'd be attracted to & that my person(s) would be the members of this band. Their whole package is so enticing that you just can't help but sigh over them. That's the true mark of a great musician or band, that their music can transcend groups, boundaries, ect & attract the listener.
With a sound that reaches out through the radio & demands your attention, the Butchies show that they are here & that they mean business. From the uber sexy 'Your Love' to the punky-fun 'Send me You', this cd has something for everyone. It's only a shame that they aren't better known than some of the other rockers that have been played on the radio. They certainly deserved it more than other bands such as Tatu, that appeared to use their sexuality to entertain & market themselves. The Butchies are very much gay, but that isn't the main focus of their music. Their focus is to get their music heard & to have fun in the process.
I'd recommend this to just about anyone- this group has it all. The only bad part is that this band is so awesome that you'll go broke trying to track down all of their old CDs so you can listen to all of their songs- they're that good.

Summary: A Welcome Surprise
Comment: Ok, so I bought the cd because I think the chicks are WAY HOT, but it turns out that they rock too! I love tracks 1,4,6 and 10. This band turns up the heat and I'm hoping for more, more, more.

Summary: super
Comment: If you're familiar with the kind of music the Butchies write already, you'll love this CD. Just good riot-inciting rock with great lyrics that fit right in. The first song "Send Me You" is the catchiest and rocks hard; I've listened to it at least once a day ever since I got it, which was about two weeks ago. But all the songs, the more you listen to it, the more you like it. Definately a good buy, and the music is still in the Butchies spirit. And check out their music video for "Send Me You," it rocks. As for it being a shame about how they aren't widely recognized and given attention...well personally, I hope their popularity doesn't grow TOO much more than it has already....

Summary: My best kept secret
Comment: It's a shame and a wonder that The Butchies aren't better known or receive more recognition from the music industry that they so clearly deserve. In the meantime I'm keeping The Butchies close to my heart. There is little doubt that this punk rock trio from North Carolina is my favorite band around. I've been waiting for the release of their fourth record for a year, since they announced that they're working on a new album when they toured Chicago last April, and MAKE YR LIFE doesn't disappoint. It includes all the hypnotic and seductive rhythms we've come to expect from Kaia, Melissa and Alison and also the incredible guitar and drums. There's nothing more uplifting and satisfying than listening to MAKE YR LIFE on the way home from work. The only problem is that I hardly ever listen to the entire CD in sequential order, rather I find myself continuously hitting the rewind button to listen to the same song over and over. When a Butchies song captures your attention so strongly it's difficult to listen to any other song. Kudos to The Butchies for another spectacular release, and I sincerely hope that there's lots more in the future. Very highly recommended.
