Brooklyn-based trio Gooseberry releases ‘Cattle,’ taken from the latest album, ‘All My Friends Are Cattle,’ out now!

Brooklyn-based trio Gooseberry returned in April to announce their most ambitious project to date: their debut full-length LP ‘All My Friends Are Cattle.’ In the last few months, the band has released a series of incredible singles, showcasing the impressive lyrical range and blend of sounds that is wholly Gooseberry. Today, the group is finally sharing the ‘All My Friends Are Cattle’ LP, and are, fittingly, highlighting the track ‘Cattle.’

The name of the album comes from the first lyric of the title track, ‘Cattle,’ a song “describing the guilt felt upon realizing how selfish the pursuit of art, or really greatness in any field, can seem,” frontman Asa Daniels remarks. “Artists spend so much of their time promoting that it can feel like all we do is badger our friends and family to listen to our work and support us by buying tickets over and over. It’s mentally draining because you realize that, even if you don’t intend to, you’re suddenly using the people closest to you to further your own ambition.”

From punchy punk rock to Beatles-y singer/songwriter tunes, Gooseberry is proving they can do it all, and will constantly keep you guessing about what’s next. Though powered by heavy 90s alternative influences, this LP showcases what Gooseberry can be: an exciting amalgamation of many genres and sounds, taking the listener on a journey that never once leaves the ear tired and consistently keeps the mind guessing where they will head next. ‘With All My Friends Are Cattle,’ the band showcases their knack for infectious melodies and emotionally resonant storytelling, leading listeners in a sonic journey that is both familiar and refreshingly unpredictable.
