More Info

Bass Drum of Death’s new album Say I Won’t is the end result of a journey that took singer
and bandleader John Barrett from a small town in Mississippi and sent him across the world
and back home again. The music still rips, with blown-out guitars and drums that sound like
bombs going off, and the melodies are catchier than ever, hollered in Barrett’s trademark
yelp. But the music hits differently now, more at peace with itself, propelled by a new
swagger. Say I Won’t is the record of a veteran band finding its stride and leaning into it,
stripping back the excess and finding the raw core of their sound. Say I Won’t, the band’s
fifth record, comes at a time of massive change for Barrett, having relocated from New York
to his hometown of Oxford, Mississippi during the pandemic. The record is also a
homecoming of a different sort, with the band rejoining the ranks of Fat Possum, also in
Oxford, the label that released their first record GB City in 2011.
