Indie noise stalwarts, Michigan’s own God Bullies, return with its new single “Cops In Plain Clothes.” The track is off As Above, So Below (Reptilian Records), the band’s first new album in thirty years!

Originating in Kalamazoo, home of the state’s largest mental facility, the dark-edged satirists God Bullies warped minds in the ‘90s by taking rock and garage-punk conventions and injecting them with massive overdoses of mental sickness, Midwestern perversion, backwoods hatred, and completely whacked-out speech sampling. Imagine Flipper crossed with Link Wray, fronted by a prison-bound Jim Bakker, and you might be close.

Fast-forward to 2024, and Father Hard and a core group of deranged Detroit disciples – guitarist Scott Kodrik, bassist Pat O’Harris, and drummer Cliff Carinci – have made the pilgrimage to Steve Albini’s Electrical Audio Studios to share their twisted, obsessive tales of conspiracies and fringe beliefs with the brainwashed masses! Boasting a much tighter, heavier and more sinister sounding God Bullies, As Above, So Below is set to rock the foundations of your faith; a dark, crude, and menacing attack that should appeal to fans of Jesus Lizard, Tomahawk, Easy Action, Melvins, Unsane, The Birthday Party, and the prime years of Amphetamine Reptile Records.

As Above So Below was recorded at Electrical Audio in Chicago, produced by Sanford Parker and the band, engineered and mixed by Sanford Parker, and mastered by Collin Jordan at Boiler Room Mastering in Chicago.

With the new single, “Cops In Plain Clothes,” Father Hard preaches, “The song is sage words of advice. Cops; They’re fucking everywhere. They are informers and infiltrators. Enforcers and instigators. Watch out for cops in plain clothes. They are imposters and impersonators. Provocateurs and perpetrators. Watch out for cops in plain clothes.”

God Bullies will take their endtime preachings on the road in support of the new album this Fall with As Above, So Below October 2024. See confirmed tour dates below and expect further live updates to follow.
