The Butcher Sisters (also known as TBS) are a German band formed in Mannheim, Baden-Württemberg in 2011. They are a band whose music can be classified somewhere between German rap, metal, and beatdown hardcore.

History

[edit]

The band was established in 2011 by guitarists David Schneider and Manuel Renner, along with vocalist and frontman Alexander Bechtel in Mannheim. In 2013, their self-titled EP was released under their own distribution. A short time later, they received a record deal with Bleeding Nose Records. The band achieved initial success and began touring nationwide.[1]

On October 28, 2016, the band released their debut album "Respekt und Robustheit", which marked the band's breakthrough.[2] Two years down the road, in 2018, the EP "68 Undercover" was released, which included cover versions of various artists such as Toni D, KIZ, Haftbefehl, Marteria, and Pol1Z1Stens0Hn.[3] In 2019, their second album "Alpha & Opfah" was released.[4] The Butcher Sisters appear as the featured artist on the song "Path of Destiny" by the German metal band Equilibrium.[5]

In 2024, The Butcher Sisters signed a contract with Arising Empire with the release of the single "Sonnenbrille".[6] Shortly after, they performed at Full Force, Summerbreeze, and Reload.[7]

Their third album "Das Weiße Album" is set to be released on January 17, 2025.[8]
