(2019) The Budos Band - The Budos Band V

Review:
Staten Island’s The Budos Band have been on the scene for nearly 15 years, entertaining audiences with their infectious concoction of funk ‘n’ soul, afrobeat, and hard rock. Their fifth studio album, Budos Band V is a hard-charging, 33-minute blast of sharp guitar riffs, thundering horns, and heady bass that reflects the distinct musical ground on which the Budos tread.
…Calling the album Budos Band V is a return to form after the previous LP, 2014’s Burnt Offering, made a conscious decision to break the streak of numbered releases. That record was a divergence in more ways than one, taking the Budos signature, horn-heavy afro-soul sound and layering it with an increased presence of guitars that seemed inspired by early heavy metal.“On Burnt Offering, we really were trying to push the envelope in terms of getting a much more raw and rock sort of sound,” he said in the band’s announcement press release. “I think for this one we were able to refine that a little bit. We staked our ground in terms of making a rock record, and so with the fifth album, we knew how to do that and we were able to refine that and dial it back a little bit in some ways to make this album a really good combination of that rock sound of Burnt Offering but with the contours of Budos albums I through III as part of it.” Guitarist Tom Brenneck goes on to say that Budos Band V “feels like the truest representation of the band” so far. “It has that rock element of Burnt Offering but we have less of something to prove,” he said. “We can just make the record that we want to make and without jamming down people’s throats like ‘we’re not an Afrobeat band anymore,’ you know? We didn’t have to do any of that. The record has the rock and roll element, but it also has songs that could have found themselves on the first three Budos records, and that to me is what the band is.”
