Pastors of Muppets Offer Brass Band Covers of Metallica, Iron Maiden, Pantera, Machine Head, and More

Bordeaux, France’s Pastors of Muppets schtick will probably get old eventually, but for now, at least, I am ready to endorse their self-titled full-length and the EP HeadBrassBangers!, the dual releases they are now offering on Bandcamp.

In case the name of the EP, the cover art, and my headline don’t somehow give it away, said schtick is this: they record brass band covers of metal songs. Could be really dumb, but in this case, they’re really good — they don’t quite sound like Big Band material, but they definitely have some swing to ’em. They even make songs by normally-horrible bands like Korn and Disturbed sound okay.

BONUS: if you’re looking for a Thanksgiving dinner soundtrack that is palatable to both you and your relatives, you may have very well just found it!

Check out Pastors of Muppets’ self-titled full-length and HeadBrassBangers! below. You can purchase ’em here.
