CorpoRAT Records is proud to extend Seattle's Flesh Produce the warmest of welcomes to our island of misfit musicians.
"Digital hardcore duo Flesh Produce are a cathartic purging of pent-up feelings and bottled-up creativity. “I can say some f#@%-up shit onstage, but then I smile at people to let them know it’s not directed at them. This band allows me to embody a lot of emotions,” says vocalist-guitarist-producer Myla Profitt.
The Seattle, Washington-based twosome’s tracks are an exhilarating example of controlled chaos. “In the past, a lot of my ideas got thrown out because I was a drummer with weird taste in music. This band gives me the chance to express myself while beating the shit out of the drums so much that I throw up after shows,” reveals drummer-producer Karl Fagerstrom.
Flesh Produce are spreading a virulent concoction of EDM, noise rock, punk, sludge metal, hip-hop, and emo. Its tracks teem with stop-on-a-dime dynamic shifts, glitch-infested passages, finely-diced samples, and dynamically expressive vocals. The band’s freewheeling compositional sense is informed by Karl and Myla’s high-level of musicianship, formal music training, fearless creativity, and knack for sneaking ear-worm melodies inside chaotic passages.
Since its inception in 2017, Flesh Produce has built an impressive independent artist profile. The group has released three albums, toured regionally, and made unforgettable appearances at such festivals as Bumbershoot, Treefort Music Fest, Volume Music Festival, and Capitol Hill Block Party.
Its manic live performance style fuses the adrenaline rush of punk and metal shows with the infectious dance energy of an EDM show. Onstage, Karl is a deftly-controlled circular storm of limbs, intricate beats, and triggered samples. Myla is the consummate riot grrrl 2.0 frontwoman. One moment she’s at a computer station dicing up samples in real time, and, in the next, she’s scaling the venue’s rafters." - Lorne Behrman
Go ahead and go give them a follow on Instagram and Spotify and then stream the fuck out of their most recent offering; Couch Slime IV. The 12-track album is an apocalyptic masterpiece written during the pressure cooker of the pandemic, and the BLM protests. The stench of a burning world courses through the songs. More on this gem soon, as well as some rad new merch. . .
