Hailed as one of the USs most exciting and provocative new bands, Prostitutes bracing debut Attempted Martyr finally sees its official worldwide release on Mute.Emerging out of Dearborn, Michigan, this five-piece deal in pure chaos and catharsis - fiery live shows, razor-sharp intensity, and a sound thats as incendiary as it is brutally tight. Their name reflects their fixation on identity, desperation, and survival under late capitalism.Attempted Martyr was written in the midst of global and personal turmoil, capturing the zeitgeist of a world unraveling. A loose concept record, it chronicles the rise and fall of a doomed zealot whose pursuit of holy vengeance spirals into a psychotic orgy of violence, greed, and lust. Its dense, turbulent, and charged with blaring Middle Eastern, African and East Asian influences - all scorched into shape by producer Chris Koltay (The Armed, Mdou Moctar).With mounting online buzz, critical acclaim and a run of sold-out bootleg editions, Prostitutes debut continues to gain momentum now available on red vinyl and CD.
