  • Description

    Shadow Kingdom Records is proud to present LEATHÜRBITCH's highly anticipated second album,'Shattered Vanity', on CD and vinyl LP.



    As the band themselves say, "The 'Bitch is back," and here's the proof - LEATHÜRBITCH's second full-length,'Shattered Vanity'.



    Undeniably their heaviest effort yet, 'Shattered Vanity 'sees the quintet getting back to their speed metal roots, ditching some of its predecessor's more melodic, near-hair metal sensibility for a sound that's piledriving but dripping with the same characteristic sleaze. Not for nothing do they brand themselves ""Portland Sleaze Speed,"" for LP#2 proves that without a doubt, with prolific drum-God Charlie Koryn (Ascended Dead, Void Ceremony, Funebrarum et. al.) providing the propulsion. Not to be outdone, everyone in LEATHÜRBITCH deliver superlative performances across 'Shattered Vanity,' from the twin-axe fireworks of Pat Sandiford and Alex Ponder to the more-classic-'80s-than-anyone throat of towering frontman Joel Starr. This heavier and darker approach is totally suiting the album's lyrical themes, which span the spooky and horror related. Above all, the entirety of 'Shattered Vanity 'offers refreshing variety, moving at many (always-energetic) speeds but never forgetting true songwriting and what makes an ""album"" truly an album.



    Any way you cut it, LEATHÜRBITCH are delivering the goods, AGAIN: pure-as-steel '80s metal done with authenticity and passion. Look in their mirror and find'Shattered Vanity!'



    Think early Ratt, W.A.S.P., and even Mötley Crüe meets equally early Jag Panzer, Bitch, and Armored Saint.
