Reception

Rock Journalist Keith Valcourt stated on behalf of the Butcher Babies: “The Hottest Band in the World” in his review of a show. The Butcher Babies deliver a loud crashing blend of heavy metal, punk and thrash that recalls Pantera, adding their stage show embodies the horror antics of Alice Cooper and Rob Zombie. Carla and Heidi don’t merely sing: they assault the crowd with a blinding flash of aggression and abuse. And the crowd loves them for it.” [2]
