Fan-filmed video footage of BUTCHER BABIES' February 24 performance in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada can be seen below. In a 2015 interview with Houston Press, BUTCHER BABIES frontwoman Heidi Shepherd was asked if she ever feels like the media just focuses on the band's sexuality and not its music.

We [fellow BUTCHER BABIES singer Carla Harvey and I] responded immediately with, 'Absolutely fucking no.' [Laughs] We were, like, a) we're not even experts in that; and b) why would I go on TV talking about that? I have so much more to talk about and I have so much more [to offer], so many more things to say, you know? That really did bother us. Carla and I were, like, we don't even want to interview with you guys if you guys just want to air all this kind of bullshit." BUTCHER BABIES' second album, "Take It Like A Man", was produced by Logan Mader, who has previously worked with FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH, DEVILDRIVER, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY and GOJIRA.
