The pair, based in Tacoma, Washington, are both veterans of a regional rock scene, with Donny Paycheck formerly playing drums for Zeke (a hardcore band who made their name playing with Pearl Jam, Iron Maiden, and Mudhoney among others).<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Both are actually barbers by trade, and as part of their act, don blood-spattered white smocks.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- Random Ad stuff --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-2076862002005673\" data-ad-slot=\"3107208401\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p><script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;The classic imagery of what a barber is correlates so well to the music,&#8221; says Donny. &#8220;We keep it straightforward and as sharp as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Jason adds, &#8220;It&#8217;s a little creepy and weird, but it&#8217;s a lot of fun, and ties into what we do every day.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To make their debut album, the duo called on a Seattle legend \u2013 Jack Endino, the producer and engineer who was behind the boards for Nirvana\u2019s Bleach. They\u2019ve captured a sound that is at once demonic and enticing, and has that distinctive Pacific Northwest vibe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;Kill 4 U&#8217;, the first track from their album, makes Jason Cutthroat\u2019s intentions clear: he\u2019s out for love and for blood, and not necessarily in that order. Laid over a lean guitar riff and a heavy backbeat, Jason purrs a lethally seductive come-on. The track nods to the greats of Seattle\u2019s rock past before slashing out in its own venomous direction.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The clip showcases Tacoma, with Donny&#8217;s own Supernova Barbershop as much a star of the video as the musicians are. We&#8217;re left in no doubt as to the shop&#8217;s authenticity: the checkerboard floors, sprays, brushes, leather chairs and wide mirrors. The difference however is that these demon barbers, with their blood spatters and rubber gloves, are doing more than just cutting hair&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can check out The Cutthroat Brothers online on <a href=\"http:\/\/facebook.com\/thecutthroatbrothers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/thecutthroatbrothers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/cutthroat_bros\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, as well as their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cutthroatbrothers.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_43794\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Xu1McejK5RE?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"The Cutthroat Brothers - Kill 4 U (Official Video)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Xu1McejK5RE\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cutthroat Brothers have been called &#8220;The Sweeney Todds Of Rock&#8221; because of their razor-sharp riffs and dangerously catchy songs.
