Local rockers B&E will release their new album, Chords to Live By, Saturday at Deluxe in Maplewood.

The band plays old school garage and punk rock with some commercial glam mixed in. Frontman Brendan Corcoran’s voice hearkens 1970s figures like John Lydon and David Bowie and he often loses it on the mic, squealin’ and squawkin’ through a typhoon of rage. The two guitar assault is grungy and lo-fi.

The album features backup vocals from Jason Potter (Left Arm), Kat Kissick (Midtown Thieves) and Sunyatta Marshall (The Helium Tapes).

All in all, not a bad listen. Bring your earplugs to the show (safety first!)

B&E CD release show with Left Arm
10 pm Sat., Deluxe
