Lungbutter

Lungbutter is a Montreal-based noise rock trio serving up raw, hypnotic grooves since their formation in the mid-2010s. Comprised of Ky Brooks (vocals/guitar), Joni Sadler (bass), and Naomi McCarroll-Butler (drums), the band crafts sprawling, textural soundscapes that blend post-punk tension with sludgy psychedelic edges. Their 2019 debut album *Honey* became a cult favorite in experimental circles, showcasing their knack for transforming repetitive riffs into cathartic, mantra-like jams. Known for Brooks' confrontational vocals and the rhythm section's locked-in intensity, Lungbutter thrives in Montreal's DIY spaces while channeling influences from Sonic Youth's dissonance to the primal energy of No Wave. Their tracks like "Flat White" and "Bravo" reveal a band unafraid to stretch songs into hypnotic, anxiety-fueled journeys.
