Le Butcherettes
Explosive garage punk with a theatrical, confrontational edge. Raw energy and jagged riffs for when you need to burn the floor down.

Le Butcherettes sound like a high-voltage wire snapping in a crowded room. It is music that refuses to sit still, characterized by Teri Gender Bender's wild, uninhibited vocal delivery and a guitar tone that feels like it was dragged through gravel. The sound is rooted in the rawest form of garage rock, but it is elevated by a sense of performance art that makes every track feel like a scene from a feverish, avant-garde play.
What truly sets them apart is the tension between their primitive punk roots and a sophisticated, almost surrealist approach to songwriting. While the rhythms are driving and the energy is peak-level, there is a constant sense of unpredictability. One moment you are in a bluesy stomp, and the next, the song has fractured into a jagged, noisy protest. It is confrontational, brilliant, and deeply physical music.
Start with 'A Raw Youth' to hear their most realized studio vision, or 'SIN SIN SIN' for the pure, unadulterated energy that first caught the attention of legends like Jack White and Omar Rodríguez-López. It is the perfect soundtrack for moments when you need to feel powerful, strange, and entirely awake.
Le Butcherettes is a Mexican garage punk band formed in 2007 in Guadalajara by Teri Gender Bender.
