“For lack of a much better word, Butane Variations' new self-titled record is neat. There are such sweet moments that pop up here and there, and the horn and banjo phrases on this song are a case in point. And that pedal steel - who saw that coming?” - Music (for robots)
“Butane Variations... are damn tasty. This six-piece psych-tinged Americana ensemble, headed by songwriters Phil Weinrobe and John-Paul Norpoth, just seems to know something other bands don't. Or maybe they care more.” - PlaybackSTL
Just off the road from a string of dates with Akron/Family, Butane Variations is poised to release its brilliant full-length debut. The band has gained loads of recognition in NYC recently for its blowout rooftop performances in Brooklyn—drawing several hundred people in with numbers growing
In case you haven’t heard yet, Butane Variations is a six-piece “art-garage-country-post rock” band based in Brooklyn, NY. We know that description may be a little daunting, but take a listen for yourself— these guys cover a lot of ground: The band’s full-length debut will be available August 14, 2007 on Achord Recordings. Bryce Goggin (Pavement, Phish, Dinosaur Jr., Clem Snide) mixed the album and Alan Douches (Sufjan Stevens, Beirut, Animal Collective) mastered. |
