## Resource

The Brutal Devine is the name of the new Spread Eagle album. It drops on Friday, June 12th, and the guys are here to tell me about it. The album contains 10 tracks. Produced by Rob, and written over the course of the past few years, the guys love this album. Rob said, "We made a fantastic record that we know our fans are going to like. So far, the reviews are off the charts." Ray chimed in, "It's a really well-written record, and we're really proud of it. It's solid." 1. Flat Earth Vultures 2. Street Noise 3. Gunflower 4. Jail Rat 5. Forbidden Local Honey 6. Pushed to the Limit 7. Ant Farm 8. Scars in Our Eyes (City Kids) 9. Inside a Shrunken Head 10. Makebeliever "It's just a natural progression of things," Ray mentioned while talking about what the band has in place for 2026. We also talked about recording their debut album, some 36 years ago. Ray said his frustration with the recording process and using a big-time studio was a lot for the young singer. "As bad as that experience was, it's what had to happen at the time", Rob said. Rob talked about the backing of the label, Frontiers. "They're doing well. Anything is applicable." He said they seem to get the band. That's important. That's just for starters on this great conversation with the guys.... Thanks for listening, and go get the album when it comes out! Enjoy!
